Matt,
I never thought that I would even be writing this. I miss you already. Most of all I miss your smiling face and the endless jokes. I am going to miss your Christmas cookies and chocolates and our trips to Dino's Pizza (because they have the best pizza!), our snapchats back and forth of our Bang energy drinks- you asking me if I had one today! I'll miss us blasting and dancing to country songs going through the drive thrus. We danced and sang like no one was even watching us. When I go through Lehigh Parkway it will never be the same without you hanging from your tree blasting your music telling me you see me and asking if i see you!

You were such a wonderful man and beautiful light on this earth. You helped me so much. I wish there would have be something I could have done to help you. Thank you for being one of my best friends.

I will pray for you and your family during these difficult times. I pray you are finally at peace and I hope you know that you are so deeply loved.

my last text to you a few days ago said it but ill say it again. I miss you and I love you!

Like you always said "It's not good bye.. its see you later."

Together with our son the trouble they would get into together. He always had a big hug for me when I saw him. He will be missed so so much. I'm so sorry, the loss of Matt is Heartbreaking.
