Our Deepest Sympathy.
Matt grew to be a fine young man.
Our fondest memories of Matt include Sunday mornings when he and others would show up, seemingly from the smell of bacon cooking, to our porch. After breakfast, an afternoon at the beach would always prove to be a good time. They were much younger then and they were a fun bunch to have around. Maybe life was a bit easier then. Matt kept his best qualities. We will miss him.

Although my interactions with Matt were limited (through Micheal) I know that he cared for you and was so PROUD to say that you were Joey's God Father - you will be missed and I am sure that Randi and Micheal will make sure that Joey knows who you are!

My thoughts and prayers go out to the whole Scaglione family at this time, and to all of his friends. I knew Matt very well a few years back. He was always so fun-loving, and just brought a presence where-ever he went, that very few could bring. He will be greatly missed, and in my thoughts forever.

There are no words to express our condolences and heartfelt sadness. I have known Matt since he was in kindergarten with my son Jason. I will always remember his smile and beautiful eyes. The last time we saw him, we were all sitting at our kitchen table going through the Allamanda year book, when they were in Mrs. Laird's Kindergarten class. He was laughing at his picture, he had no front teeth and was so adorable. He was such a sweet young man. Please know that your family are in our prayers.
