Dear Fran and Shawn
We were so sorry to hear about your loss. We did not know Matt well, but he was always courteous and respectful whenever we saw him. I cannot begin to imagine the pain you are having to endure. Please know we will continue to pray for comfort from the One who is the Comforter, Jesus.

So sorry to hear of your loss; a son, grandson and brother. I will keep all of you in my prayers. God has a plan and we never know when it is our time and how he will choose to take us. Keep in your heart strong faith and all the wonderful memories you have of Matt. A very special part of him will be with me forever.

Sorry had to send one more because i'm good at writing and i hope you find a bit of comfort in this .....
Heaven
Now that I'm in Heaven, Lord
and life is just a dream
I don't want to hang around
eating strawberries and cream.
I'm really quite an active child
and I don't need to rest
I'll just play and do the things
You know I like the best.
I'll play ball in Heaven, Lord
With my halo on my head
I'll run around the playing field
or use my wings instead.
I'll pick the players on my team
and when we win the game
I'll make the Heaven's Hall of Fame
Everyone will know my name.
I'll fish the streams and rivers, Lord
and lure big fish my way.
You know I'll put them back again
to catch another day.
I'll sail he seas and see the lands
the mountains and the plains
I'll fly the skies with open eyes
above the clouds and rain.
I'll even practice all the things
an angel has to do
but mommy know my favorite thing
is watching over you.
