This is such a shame
Rest in Peace, Matthew.
Wherever you are, I hope your soul is at peace.
In the interactions I shared with you, in a professional setting and otherwise, you always came across as deeply thoughtful, intelligent, and genuinely kind. It´s a true loss that you didn´t have more time here, as I believe you truly were someone with the desire and potential to make the world a better place, given the chance.
