Elaine, John, Paul, Christopher & Matthew,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Matt was such a warm and kind soul every time I saw you altogether. He always had a smile when we would see you at church or St. Joe's School with our 4 children. My heart breaks for all of you. You are all in my thoughts & prayers for your strength.
