My Dear Son,
Today we said our goodbyes for now.  For we know we shall see you again.  I am certain you were watching us from above. And  could feel our love for you. You are my amazing Son and I could not ever be more proud.  Your Shipmates, Friends, Chiefs, Commander, Father, Sisters and Brother were all there to honor you.  And so many others.  My heart aches,  that I cannot touch you or see you.  Although,  you are in a far better place with our Lord and the angels.  I’ve no doubt, you have your wings  already and are feeling at peace. We all will learn to handle your physical being not being on earth.  Although, it is hard for us, you’ve already done so many wonderful things for everyone. You brought families together, old friends from long ago, and most especially created new friends and family for us.  Your guys miss you terribly!  I will check on them often and make sure they know we love them as you did.  You my Son just rest and soar with the Angels!  I’ll talk to you often and sure you will hear me and know how much I love you!  I will see you again someday!   Always my baby boy!  Mom

Mat and i go back to 2014. Location: Jacksonville Florida. Command: VP-62. We we’re currently stationed together at NAS JRB Fort Worth. I could max this box out with stories involving Mat, but I’m going to share one. Mat was one of four Enlisted Aviation Warefare Specialists Coordinators at VP-62. I was falling behind on my qualification and instead of snitching me out or putting me down he came to my house for a week strait and helped me study so that I could pass my board and get my P-3C Orion EAWS qualification. He even came over on the weekend. That’s what you call a 24/7 Sailor.  Family doesn't have to be blood but whoever your family is, they are invaluable no matter what. I miss you brother! Rest In Peace. 

You were an amazing person, brother, son, and uncle.  I was so very proud of you and all of your accomplishments. I also know you knew the Lord  as savior and you believed in him: . I will see you again my brother. I love you with all my heart and I will miss you so very dearly .... until we meet again. Until then Matt... walk with Jesus and sing loud with the angels. I’ll always be listening... love you , 
Carrie 

I'm truly sorry for your loss. Prayer's for you all.🙏🙏🙏

My condolences to the Landers family. I met Matt at my last duty station before getting out of the Navy. We didn’t talk much but when we did it was always about the latest happenings in Houston sports. May he Rest In Peace.
