I only knew Matthew for a short time, while working with him at Burger King. He was always nice and friendly with staff as well as customers every day that he worked. The staff at Burger King was shocked to hear of Matthew's passing and will miss him. We are sending prayers to all of his family . May god bless and keep all of you everyday.
