Came to see you today. Thinking about the time we went to the lake and jumped off cliffs and sang music at the top of our lungs on the car ride there. I miss and love you so so much silly. See you later alligator! ❤️
“Eric”
Never did I think that I would meet someone connect on every level. He was my best friend. My brother. I miss you so much.
The Worlds Best Boss
Though I only interacted with Matt his senior year, he was one of my favorite people to be around. Matt had this almost superhuman skill on how to lead people. He was a strict leader but one you wanted to work for. I work daily to try and achieve even just a small fraction of his leadership skills. When Matt wasn’t in his commander mode, he was just a fun person who was always the life of the party. It didn’t matter if it was a nerf gun shootout or a lightsaber dual, Matt always new how to bring everyone’s spirits up. Happy heavenly birthday to you brother. We love you and miss you.
Happy Heavenly Birthday
Matt was such a fine, Godly young man. He made such a strong impression on my son Connor through ROTC. Matt is truly missed but will always live in the hearts of the people that love him.
Matty’s birthday
Happy birthday Matt. I love and miss you more than words. I know it’s a little early but you’ll always be our baby in the friend group. Hope you’re having “the time of your life”. Love you always -Jess xoxo
