To Matthew's family, I have not seen your husband, father, brother for many years. But I remember a great lady name Mother Mobley - Who inspired me during the lost of my mother at 11 years old. I remember "Bug" being just a little thing maybe 5/6 years old. Gee how time fly. I remember all her children, TT (Queen Ester), Paul, Jeremiah, Hosea and Ellis. The last time I saw the family was at Mother Mobley's going home service in Atlanta, GA - I am truly blessed to have know a very special family indeed, who head(Mother Mobley) touch so many lives. Be blessed and don't lose heart.

To Myra and the Mobley Family,
Once again the Wolverine Family chain has been broken. For those Wolverines who knew Matthew he will be deeply missed. Many of us will remember his smile, kindness, cheerfulness and spirit. Mathew will be remembered in many different ways by many schoolmates, but I will always remember the way he smiled and laughter as he walked the hall of S. M. Tompkins High School. Losing a love one is never easy, but if you keep your mind on God and Godly things, he will give you the strength that you need. Remember earth has no sorrow that heaven can not heal. Myra, please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

The Mobley Family_I met the immediate family during this crisis. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of you for your great loss. I met "Matt" within the last year at Hertz. And every time I saw him he was jolly and cheerful. To experience such huge loss will me hard to re-group without him. But, just know that the loss of such a great person will be missed by many.
My prayers and thoughts go with the family as you travel through this maze (of sorts) with only the divine one knowing how much it hurt to bear the 'pain.' I can promise you that with the love of "Him" and the support of mankin-another day will come to ease the pain-just believe.

It was just the other day that you and I talked while coming into the plant, you were moving so fast that I could hardly keep up with you. You were a man that many people admired for your work ethics and devotion to family. I believe that your journey to our father in heaven will be just as fast and when you get there you can rest everlasting. Your longtime friend at Great Dane and in life, Tom Broderick
