I have so many memories of and with Matt, but I will remember him mostly for his kindness, loyalty, friendship, and his dedication to those he loved. I will also remember him for the love he had for `lil Matt, the apple of his eye, his purpose.

Matt, you will be missed!
Rest in peace

I remember Mathew as a loving and adventurous child. Once my husband was on a ladder changing the gutters on our house and heard a voice saying, "Hey, Howie, what are you doing!" To my husband´s alarm, little Mathew was one rung below him on the ladder!
