So sorry to learn of Matthew's passing. His late Uncle "Rodger" was happy to learn of his nephew's middle name and we followed his and John's sports accomplishments from a very proud Grandpa Marvin and Grandma Bette. I had been at Harbor House in early October, enjoying the great food unknowing Matthew worked there, what a chef. Rest in peace Matthew and may the angels guide you to the palm of God's loving hand. With sympathy and loving thoughts to Matthew's children, parents, family and friends. Aunty Karen.
