Matthew never had an unkind word about anyone. He was quick to forgive and never held grudges. He was a kindhearted uncle and always had a smile and kind word to his nephews and neices and of course his two kids meant everything to him and he was always available for them. They were his pride and joy. He was always available to help those who asked him to. I was priviledged as his mom to have lived with him for 8 years.  I got to know his kind and gentle nature as an adult child and I cherish the memories of our time together. He was a big help to his mom in so many ways.  He always made me smile inside and I was and still am proud of him. I miss his gentle eyes and shy smile
