Matthew was a dear friend whom I first came to know as he volunteered to read with students at Cherokee Heights Elementary. He faithfully came every week and showed care and interest in the children with whom he worked. I am proud to have been his friend. I will always remember him with love and gratitude.

We will miss your smile when you we would see you at family events. I still remember you selling Mohawk Tires at State and Concord on the West Side. Matt would always have a lively conversation whenever you would meet him. Your 2nd cousin Mary Mauricio(Garcia) and Sons. Rest In Peace, Dear Friend.

Matt was a friend of our family for many years. He and my Brother walked to school on the Westside. He always had to wait for my Brother and was late most of the time. God Bless Matt.

I am sorry to hear of the passing of Demitro. I used to draw his blood at the VA Medical Center in Minneapolis for years. I have not seen him since I quit there, but have thought of him often. He was always a bright spot in my working day! We used to talk about the West Side quite a bit, as I am from St Paul as well. My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time. May your good memories bring you comfort at this time.
