I look at this website often and your mom is in alot of pain. I don't pretend to know her pain because Sammy was my nephew but I can say that it hurts like heck not to have him here so I can imagine your mom's pain. I see the tributes and I see that you were a great son and a great friend to many. Alot of similarities to Sammy. I know by now that you and Sammy have met and that you are both doing fine and getting along just great. Its the rest of here on earth that are not doing fine. You have a lovely smile and I can see you were a gentle soul.
Watch over your family and give them the strength to carry on. One day we will all be in God's Kingdom. an angel is now watching over you caring for you even more then he did when he was near you an angel will give you the strength to go on and remember all the great memories you made together an angel will always love you now and forever YOUR ANGELS NAME IS.....

These are names that I used to call you back in the day. I remember when you asked me to be your biology partner in 10th grade. I was so shocked that you asked me because I thought you were so cute. You were one of the first friends I made in AK. You were the only person I knew who watched the original Degrassi Junior High in the 80's. Speaking of the 80's, you were the 80's king (poor). I never met a bigger Madonna fan. I was amazed that you knew all the words to The Rocky Horror Picture Show. You always made me laugh. I remember when our Math teacher called your Mom and told her that you were hanging out with this Jenny character and that I was a bad influence on you. We got the biggest kick out of that. I never stopped thinking about you. After we lost touch a few years ago, I tried to look you up several times but could never find you. It was only recently when I was trying to look you up again that I found this memorial website. My heart sank. I could barely breath. I am so fortunate to have known you. You touched my life and still impact it to this day. My Mom told me that you tried to call several times but wouldn't give you my phone number because I am now married. I wish she had. It hurts me to think that perhaps you thought I didn't want to talk to you because I did! I will always cherish the the memories that I have of you. I wish you could see my daughter, Madelyn. She is now 4 months old. She has my cat eyes (as you used to call them). She is very long though so I don't expect her to be border-line midget like I am (poor). Matt, you are so loved. I hope you knew that when you were still with us. Good bye my dear old friend. I will never forget you.
It's been a year... / Monica (Sister)
One year ago today my life as I knew it changed forever. My baby brother, my pride and joy, my only sibling was gone forever. Suddenly, yet peacefully, you slipped away from me and out of this earthly world. You are now a guardian angel looking down and guiding me and my family thru this life. I can remember that horrifying phone call as if it were yesterday. It was a terrible day. March 1st always will be. It is an awful memory that I unfortunately replay in my mind all the time. It consumes me at times and frustrates me that I just can't totally comprehend what happened. I feel like it is all a really bad joke. There are days that I expect to see you at my door with that big smirky smile on your face apologizing that you put me thru this. There are days that I just don't believe that you are gone. I feel like you are away on a long trip or something, but the reality of the fact that I will never see you on this earth again is something I still haven't dealt with. When will I realize it? How will it happen? Will I totally break down one day or will I just continue thru life like this? Confused, sad, in mourning. I have faith in God that you are being taken care of. I know that God has His hand in all things. I hope that you are now enjoying the grace of God and knowing that he is good all the time! It is still so totally unreal at times. I feel like my coping mechanism just keeps me going. I feel like I haven't totally dealt with your passing but I realize I have to live on and be strong for mom, Frank and my family. I love you and always will. I will miss you every day for the rest of my life. I will always be sad at the fact that you will never meet my precious baby girl Megan. I will cherish every photo, conversation, and memory of you forever. When I look at Joel I see your little boy face. He is so big and strong now. He misses you too! You were his only Uncle Matt and he loves to hear stories about you. We will keep you alive in spirit. I love you Matt, I always will. You were a joy in my life that will never be replaced. You were kind, caring, funny and crazy and that will never be forgotten. Be with us and let me know that you are ok. You know I ALWAYS worried about you and that is something that will not change. God Bless you and protect you, and until we meet again may he hold you in the palm of His hand. I love you May Jay! Close
