I know its been a while since we've spoke, and I always think about you and wonder what things would be like if they were different. Its been a long 4 years since I last got to hug you, or even hear about what you were building in minecraft. I know you're always around, And I hope you hear me when I talk to you x
I just thought I'd tell you about how I gave Sidney your name, and how much you mean to me. Its funny, because we used to joke about you being the crazy uncle if I ever had kids when we first met.
I love you Jimmy, I really miss you and I wish you could have met Sidney xx

We think of you often James, especially around your birthday, your mums birthday and at Christmas time. It is so very sad that you are not here with your family to celebrate as you should be. You would be a man of 20 now that is so hard to believe. Merry Christmas mate where ever you are, love Sara Helen and Tiera

3/11/2014.I will never have another friend like you & I will never get used to today I hate it.Three years ago todayI didn't just lose a friend,I lost something else a feeling something on the inside.That day changed me.I don't want to end this on a bad note I don't want anyone to feel worse than they do on this day,but it can sometimes be overwhelming holding so many feelings & thoughts inside for so long.RIP James

Damon's tattoo for James
Denise Henville
December 21, 2013
These are a couple of things your friends have done for you since you went away.
Damon got a tattoo a fish that means rememberance with 95-11 on his arm and round the back of the PCYC in Woolloomooloo Rhys and Ike (with permission from the police)they did a graffiti with a batman hat in memory of you.
Everyone is still thinking of you and missing you.
If only you were here our lives wouldn't be so sad.
Love and miss you forever Your Nan.

I always think of you James and can't believe it has been two years since you left this earth to start another journey. I know that your family ache for you and I wish they could all see you again. Your Nana's posts break my heart when I read them and I wish I knew how to take your mums pain away. I know that you will be with them all in their hearts forever, I wish I knew how to help take away their pain and fill that enormous whole that was left when you left this earth other than just writing clichéd words on a page because you meant so much more to all of them. xxxx Sara, Helen and Tiera

Wednesday 18/9/13 today you would have been 18.We miss you so much and wish you were here so we could celebrate your birthday together as we always did.Just letting you know Grand theft Auto 5 is out just in time for your birthday all your friends were talking about it on Facebook.How they were waiting at the shop so they'd be the first to get it as you would have been if you were here.You maybe gone from our lives James but you will always be with me in my heart.Your Nan xxxx

You would have been 18 tomorrow 18/9/13.I can't believe how quick time has gone by.I still remember getting the call from Jared saying what had happened.I didn't believe him at first.I was waiting for him to giggle so that I knew he was joking,when I realised he was serious my stomach dropped to the ground.I felt like curling up in a ball and just crying.I didn't know what to think.So many different things were going through my head like,WHY?Why did it have to be you? Why couldn't it have been someone else?How could I have prevented this?But it was too late God had made his decision,he wanted you(clearly he was jealous)I miss you so much I actually cannot put it into words,we weren't best friends but I still considered you a very good mate of mine.Rest in Paradise James Matthews loved by many,hated by none,gone but never forgotten.

I think about you all the time I wish I had one last day with you so I could tell you all the things I wanted to when you were alive but I never got a chance to. They reckon it gets easier the longer you've been gone but that's a lie!!Its still so hard without you here with us.If I had the chance to choose between having you back or owning everything in the world I would choose you in a heartbeat. Gone but never forgotten no matter what I will always love you. Celine

Coming up to our 2nd Easter without you mate.I can't believe it has been nearly 17 months without you.Missing you so much everyday.Constantly thinking of you and remembering everything we did together.It is so clear in my mind I can even hear conversations we had.If I could only hear your voice now I would do anything for that to happen.This picture is our shrine to you.We light a candle for you every night and sit and watch television with you and sometimes things come on that remind me of you.Mum had this picture that you painted framed for my 60th it says "Happy 60th Nan love forever James" I love you mate Your Nan XXX

15 months today my beautiful boy.Missing you so much every day.You don't know what you've got until it is gone.I miss the love that you always gave me.Guess what Zelda was on at the opera house this week-end I am sure you would have loved it as you played it so much.It's funny the things that remind me of you,today Pop was watching some movie and it kept making this funny sound and then I remembered what it reminded me of that Pokemon game we used to play together probably the only game I ever beat you at.I was never any good at any of your other games just sat and watched you play.
love as always YOUR NAN xxx

Another Australia Day coming up without you.Life seems to be just one day after another and without you here nothing to look forward to.All I seem to do is constantly look at your photos and videos and write in this book.All A bit depressing if only you were here to say "wake up to yourself Nan I'll see you again one day" The way the time is flying it will be sooner than you think.Love you as always your Nan xxx P.S. Did you like your little story I put in re Captain Jack!!!!

Words of wisdom by James Matthews.
At school and its clean up time."James its your turn to clean the kitchen.""But I didn't eat I never eat"
"But you still have to clean it everyone has to do it."*EPIC POKER FACE*Starts talking like Captain Jack Sparrow."Ahh mate everyone has to do it cause everyone eats I didn't eat therefore I didn't contribute to the mess.So it just seems all a bit unfair if the ones who did the eating get to sit down and watch me clean their mess and the one who didn't cleans up all their mess,savvy?

Jimmy,here again I lay awake at night thinking of you and especially your wonderful mother.I miss you so much man.I've lost a member of my family and nothing will ever be the same again.But I know I have to let you go and rest eternally.I just want to apologize and say goodbye.These are the two things I never got a chance to say.I've overcome the stage of anger and depression and have welcomed a new stage of acceptance.Accepting that you are now at peace with the world.I love you no matter what.I would honestly do anything just to get one of your hugs again just one last time.Rest easy my brother we'll meet again some day I know it.

James I miss you so much I wish you were here with me just to chill and go buy smokes down the wharf and talk about anything and everything.But all is left is memories we had and I will never forget them.It's seriously not the same without you popping up on Facebook and we would have random conversations that didn't make any sense.Love you forever and always.RIP baby.

Not a day goes by brother,not a single day that your not on my mind ,not a single day when I don't miss you.There are just so many things that remind me of you.I tried to explain your personality to my friend and I was lost for words.Your undescribable,such a unique person that I am proud to call my brother.I love you Jimmy boy,until the day we meet again rest assured that your okay,and your memory remains in the heart of everyone who loves you.It's such a tragedy that your gone,the world has lost a great man.It still brings me to tears thinking about you,but you deserve peace and I hope that's exactly what your getting.Rest in Peace my brother.

So today I was thinking about when I used to just go to your house and we'd watch revenge of the nerds.God you wouldn't let me leave until I understood and laughed at every joke in the film.Gosh I miss that and you.You beautiful boy!!!

Even though he's gone,his memory still remains in our hearts.His smile and face will never fade.We think of him as we go on each day.The good times we remember and the days spent together will be in our memories forever.So when you start to get down and you really want to cry just think of the fun times and don't wonder why.Just leave it at that and know he's better now.He's in a better place.His heart was right with God.So James we love you and we miss you so much.But we know your much happier.So watch over us and make sure we're okay and we will see you again someday.Gone but never forgotten.Your wife on facebook Dee Mejia

My Darling James our 2nd Xmas without you It feels like I only saw you yesterday but then sometimes I feel like I haven't seen you for years.I miss you so much and you will always be my favourite boy.I will never understand why you had to leave us.All of your friends are brokenhearted and missing you so much as you can see from your facebook and the rap song Steven did for you.I just wish I could sit and watch one of our favourite videos together or hear one of your silly stories or just hear your voice again or get one of your hugs .As Always YOUR Nan xxx

Ey bro, alot of people miss you, everyone is crushed, we wanna hug and kiss you and deep down I feel you left too soon, you were on eof a kind wouldn't find another like you, and when I feel down and nothing really looks right I think about you and I think about the good times, don't worry about your mom we will take care of her, send my love to Mel Dunn cause wea ll feeling hurt, say what up to Levi, tell a few stories, spin him oout bro can you do that for me, ofcourse you can, you're a man of your word, but when you left us you left a lot of people hurt and now that it's like my hearts all reared, but there's no goodbye's and I'll see yous when I get there. A lot of people. a lot of people feel pain, when they lose someone they love, but you don't understand that pain, until you've lost one of your own, and that's real. Rest in peace James Matthews and Melissa Dunn. Rap by Steven DW Cuz

Saturday 3/11/12 Today will be 1 year since you left us my beautiful boy.My memories of you flood my mind from the moment I see your name etched in the cement near the station to sitting on the train and you are there with your backpack on full of your games and complaining about how far Arncliffe is,to passing Kings Cross station and seeing you standing there.To arriving at Bondi Junction, EB Games,JB HiFI,movies Mcdonalds or just hanging out with your Nan.Then I get to work and I see you bounding up the stairs just to say hi on your way to school or if I have anything to eat.I miss you so much.You better be waiting for me when my time comes.I love you Mate as always YOUR NAN
