I thought of you today. Hadn't in a long time but your boy came up as someone I might know on FB and my goodness he's looking like you. I always believed you wanted nothing but the best for those you loved. I hurt for your parents today, and for your boy. The world was brighter with you in it.

I knew Matt just a little, played tennis with him once my sons played soccer with him and were impressed with his skills. I have known his Dad George for 25 years and I know how much love he and his wife and brother had for him and my prayer is that God will help them through this time of loss.Father we call on you to be with them to give them peace. that you surround them with your love in Jesus name
