Matthew Gerard "Matt" Wilson

Rest in peace.

My name is Khalif Patel, me and Matt communicated threw messenger and became very good friends over the years, we kept each other pushing, we had hundreds of conversations from laughter to pain, he was so full of life, a great friend an a true warrior at heart, you will be truly missed my friend, my condolences goes out to his family and friends, I am so sorry, rest easy Matt, till we meet again
Your friend Khalif.

Although I never met Matt in person I considered him a good friend and would be in touch with him on a weekly base over the last 2-3 years. He played a big role in helping others in a similar situation as himself in a few groups which is where we met.
He was a great help in getting through some of the challenges our condition caused us, and also just great to talk to about life in general.
I never imagined he would be gone from our lives this early and will sincerely miss having him to talk to, as will many others, I just hope he is in a better place now.

matt and I went thru medical journeys that were related. our communication was solely via social media, but he was always such a comforting, encouraging presence who really cared about the hope of bettering others' conditions. I am devastated to hear of his passing. he was a light for me in a very dark time and I only wish I could've spoken to him in person. will be thinking about his family in this very heavy time.

I never met Matt personally but our lives crossed about a year and a half ago on a forum where we shared a similar condition. We spoke somewhat regularly during this time and he was a significant part of me being able to deal with my situation and I know I was able to give him some comfort in our conversations with his particular battle.
I never dreamed that this would be an outcome for him and I am devastated for Matt and his family.
He will be sorely missed. I would like to say that he had such an impact on many lives within the group he was part of and was so dedicated to helping others as well as himself. Without him and his hard work there would be so many unanswered questions and he made many lives that little bit more bearable. I will miss speaking with him tremendously.

We send our love and heartfelt prayers to the Wilson family. We remember Matt as a boy, growing up on Towhee Lane-so kind-hearted, bright, happy and beautiful. He will be forever remembered and loved. May the loving hands of God bring comfort to your family.
With Love,
The Graefenhain Family
