Matt,
Looks like you're off the clock Lil buddy. Its good to know that there will be good people waiting for us on the other side. I'm saddened that you had to leave so soon, but I hold firm to the belief that you had more important work to do elsewhere. You were a great friend and co worker. You always had time for a good laugh! This world lost a shining star, and now the heavens have gotten brighter! Keep lighting our way down here brother. Rest peacefully my friend!

Your smile will always brighten our lives. Thank you for being part of our family. See you in paradise buddy 
Love Vernon Stephanie & kiddies

Ken I am so sorry for your loss. No parent should ever have to bury their child. You and your family are in my prayers for you to find peace and comfort.

Our condolences to the Hale Family, near and far.  A son and sibling loss is hard.  Much love to those knowing he is always with you in spirit.  The Gero family.

My precious Matt, I am so honored to have been your Auntie.  You taught me how to love and laugh the world and others in a way that changed me forever.  You are forever in my heart.  Love you boy!

Matty Boy is how I remember him.  The imagination he had was like no other.  He was a tiny little fellow who would run around playing cowboys, riding bikes, climbing on the swing set and bouncing in the trampoline till his little body was exhausted.  Watching him grow into the fine young man he was, with a heart of gold and smile that was contagious.  The heavens gained a true angel on May 18th.  Still hard to believe he is gone.  Lifting the family in prayer and keeping you  all in my thoughts.  

XO The Honore Family

My heartfelt sympathies go out to Matt's family. I personally did not know Matt but  know  of him to be a loving caring and compassionate young man. I pray for peace and strength to his family.

Hale family, I am truly sorry for your loss. Matt was a great kid. I remember hanging out with him at Bridgets apartment in Virginia beach, always happy and fun to be around! Rip brother

I worked with Matt at Rybovich. What a smart, intelligent and well respected kid he was. No matter what work task he was doing, he would always find a way to make the best of it. He was very good at what he did and he will be missed more than he knows!!!! God bless him!!!!
