I literally just found out that you passed on and went home. I'm so sorry Matt that I didn't know or I would have been there for you. Words can't describe the sadness I feel for Matt's family. I'm genuinely so sorry. He and I hadn't seen each other in years, but we were friends all through our school days. You'll forever be in my thoughts and prayers! Matt was an amazing person and will be sadly missed.

I sending you all so many thoughts and prayers during this time! I am so very sorry for your loss!

I would watch Matt and Stacy sometimes and I will forever remember taking Matt and Stacy to The Hills Plaza for a carnival they would have only going to spend so much money but I could not resist Stacy and Matt pleas to do more so would end up spending most of if not ALL of my paycheck and the smiles Matty would have on his face will forever be something I will remember.   I am still deeply devasted on hearing the news of his sudden passing.  I loved Matty as if he was my own.  Matthew you had your struggles but you were still someone that would give his shirt off his back to someone, help someone who was in need and just an all around sweetheart of a person with a heart of gold.  I will miss you dearly.  I also remember when you were little how everyone would call you the little copper tone baby as you would get a tan so dark but your little booty would be white as white just like the Real Coppertone Baby on Bottles 😂🤣.  I pray you are at peace Matthew and have been reunited with papa ( my honey) and other family members.  Fly High Special Angel and look over your mom, sister, dad and nephews.  I will love you forever and This is not Good-bye  but Until we meet again.  Love you Matthew —-❤️Your 2nd momma
