Please accept my sympathy in the passing of Matt. I remember his as one who always dealt with his difficulties with courage and strength. He had many tough challenges yet he was determined to make the best of what God had given him. I know he will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you grieve his loss. I pray that the Lord will make his presence and power known to you very strongly in the coming months and year.

Matt embodied such real life. He was a true fighter for life and you and your family fought beautifully with him. I was blessed to see him grow up as friends with our kids, to see his determination before and after the accident and watch him blaze trails of adventure. Prayers for you and Jenny and respect for your devotion.

My heart goes out to all of you. I always enjoyed Matt’s company when I visited. He always made me laugh. Loved what he posted on Facebook. I will miss him but know him and John are fishing and hunting.

Words are not enough to capture the feelings Matt’s loss brings. Aside from seeing him at church, I remember his courage and tenacity from little on to today. I can picture him as a little guy in AWANA and at family camp determined to swim to the raft! He never quit! Nor did his loving family. Peace to you all.

I can't help but smile whenever I think of Matt. His mischievous grin and laugh at Scout Camp always kept us on our toes. What a guy!

Joy, Jen and family, words cannot express the sadness for your loss of your precious Matthew. Knowing he is pain free, with John, and now free of his broken body helps, but still a huge loss. Thinking of you all and keeping you in our prayers. Love to you, Dan, Karen, Emily and Derek
