My sympathy to the family. Matt was a Boy Scout when my son Jon was also in Troop 57 Neffs. I remember being at camp with Matt. Always a pleasure to be with him

Diane and Family,
We seem to have shared so many tears together. I am so very sorry and if Tom was here he would surely try to comfort you as you have comforted so many people over the years. The loss of your child leaves a heart broken. My prayers are with you.
