Matthew McGinn

Mattie, from the day we met until the last time we spoke I have admired your grit, your determination to be better everyday, your loyalty to your loved ones and your overall love of life. Even though I am much older then you I looked up to and was motivated to be more like you. I am disappointed in myself for not being there for you when you needed. Being caught up in my own mess isn´t an excuse. I have and will continue to love you as my brother not like a brother I am forever grateful, thankful, proud and honored to have walked either by your side or in your shadow. I ll take you with me whoever I go Matthew Dean McGinn. Until we meet again Send It IceMan

Matt was a kindred spirit with a fighting soul. It´s been years since we have seen each other, I did not even know he was sick. Matt was always one of those people who would help anyone - no matter who they were.

Love you Matt.
You will be missed but never forgotten.

So many memories.
I had recently just told a cautionary tale to the kids about 1 of our stories.
You will be missed brother.
I will continue to share our adventures with others.

Hey Matt,
Sorry to see you had to leave us boy o boy it was a wild ride and I am glad for the time we spent together while you were here. Now your on to other adventures and even though you will be missed I am willing to bet that the fishing is better where you are now. RIP my Friend
P.S. put in a good word for me up there. Thanks.

Miss you Brother, never forgotten
