It was an honor to know Matt and be his cousin. His indomitable spirit and love of life will not be forgotten. He loved bringing the family together for gatherings. I will never see The Three Stooges without thinking of Matt and how much he enjoyed watching them. I will miss him tremendously, and I wish the deepest condolences to all remembering him.
