In God's Heavenly Home In Jesus's name we will always leave a legacy
Please Talk About Matt I know many have stayed away from us as they dont know what to say or how to react. I have been in this place before so I know how uncomfortable it can be. What we all like to hear is how Matt interacted with you in his life as to us he isnt really gone just away for a while.We have bad days but it helps to cry with others, It is also okay to laugh, share comical stories,and to smile. That is what Matt would want us to do as thats the way life is.I am so happy ti see many have found the site or finally felt ready come. Everyone has to do things however they wish to do them. I am here for all of you and remember I would love nothing better than to hear from any of you- Take care Love, Pam
Living Legacy Everyone who passes by this site who has known Matthew are a part of his legacy.He cared a lot for everyone and i know he wouldn't want any of us to feel guilty or regretful for anything.He had told me that he wouldn't be ready to be married until he was 30 as he needed to get himself straightened out before he could take care of anyone else.I am so grateful he didn't have a family as it would have been heartbreaking to them for him to pass so young. Matt was an organ tissue donor so i pray someone will have a better life because of his generosity.I want to thank everyone for visiting the site and lighting candles as he really loved them.
