I was extremely saddened to hear about the passing of Matthew. Matty Z was a very dear friend for many many years. He was a friend in the truest sense of the word. While playing countless sports with Matty he was always ready to celebrate a victory or provide comfort in defeat. Yet despite the outcome he was always there to have fun with his teammates and friends. He was full of life and will always be remembered for his kind heart, compassion, and infectious smile. The Zoric family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Sorry to hear of Matt's passing, as I was just informed of the sad news over the weekend. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family and especially big brother Ivan....
It has been a long while since I have seen Matt and Ivan, but it was always a good time and lots of laughs and big smiles whenever they were around....God Bless Matty.

I am quite upset to hear about the passing of Matty Z, which I only found out about today. He was a great, fun-loving guy and it always brightened my day to see him.

I'm very sorry to hear about Matt's death, which just came to my attention today. I hadn't seen him in a while, but we had many fun times together and he was a great, fun spirit who always made me laugh. The world is worse without him.

I don't know quite what to say, as I, like many, am in a great deal of shock. It's times like these where one feels a great deal of regret for not staying in closer touch with those who have proved to be such a good friend. Matt was an amazing guy, who had a tremendous sense of humour. He was so fun to be around both on the field (court), and in school. I have spent the past couple of days reminiscing on the many experiences I shared with Matty Z. My most sincere condolences and prayers go out to all of Matt's family and friends. You will be sadly missed buddy!

Although it's been many years, it seems like yesterday that we sat in the stands and watched our boys play baseball. I can still see that shy grin and twinkle in his eyes as he made that "amazing play". But the great thing about Matt was that he did the exact same thing even if he "messed up". That was one of Matt's gifts!

Mattie;
I will never forget you! You were the best roommate a girl could ever have... you were more than that to me, we became friends!!! I will never forget your smile and the laughs we shared. I'll never forget the "karokee". I'll miss your bbq, card games, and the loud tv sports games, the house will never be the same without you. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Zoric family and Mattie's close friends.

I knew Matty for About five years as I attended school in Windsor. There was never a guy who was SURE to stick up for you more than Z. He was a stand up guy. Great memories, Chris.

Matti Z,
It's been a long time since you and I shared many victories as battery mates for Assumption Baseball. Thanks for all the memories.
My deepest condolences go out to those who knew you the most, but for a few good summers I was one of those guys who got to know you and like Mike D said you were a quiet leader, but definately drew the respect of all those around you.
Thanks for bringing me some great fun those years.
