I was Matt's friend in high school. He was always there for me. I'm gonna miss his smile, his laugh and his ability to make me laugh no matter how sad I was.
Prayers and love to your family.

Matt,
You are the KEEPER of one of the BIGGEST hearts I have ever seen on Earth! The first time I met you, I knew then, how good of a man you truly were. You always put your love for you kids above anything. Life wasn't always easy for you, but you always carried a smile and cared about people the way you saw fit! Your memory will live on! RIP brother!!!

Matthew was in my room in school and I loved every day I spent with him. He was a hard worker, always motivated and willing to help anyone who needed help no matter what the situation. I loved him then, I love him now and I always will.
