The warm memories of  Matt live on in the hearts of all that loved him.

My deepest condolences to you all. Matt was a  kind, giving, funny, and very special person. He was a great friend.  He will be in my thoughts and my heart always.  I will never forget our teenage years in the garage and beyond. Love always. 

Mark and Angie, 

My family and I are shocked and heartbroken to learn of the passing of your son, Matt. I know that you loved him dearly. You always talked about him with pride. You were always kind to me Mark, and I'm sure Matt shared your kindness, care,  and sense of humor.  Praying for you and sending you love.

Dear Mark and Angie,

We were all talking about Matt's tragic death. I mentioned remembering how your face, Mark, lit up when you talked about Matt. We all ended up crying. We lit a candle in his honor and let it burn through the night. 

Praying for your family in this dark, dark time...praying that you find some flicker of hope to keep burning through the night. 

Love,

Dear Mark:

I remember when I first met you in the crummy conference room in the old building at Collegiate. I was struck by your can-do spirit, your energy, and your commitment to quality. I am sure you passed on these attributes to your son, and I am so very sorry for your devastating loss. I know there is no cure for a broken heart, and yours must be shattered right now. Hang in there, my friend.

Dear Angie and Mark,

So very, very sorry to hear. Thinking of you -- Carole Campbell



Oh, my dear friends, this is such devastating and heart-shattering news. 

I met Matt in 2013 at a bourbon tasting hosted at your home, Angie and Mark, and organized by Elizabeth and Nathan. It was a beautiful and cozy late autumn night, punctuated by lively conversation, delicious food, and a sudden snow squall. All these years later, I can conjure the generosity of all that friendship, family, and love you share so easily. 

I am sending the essence of that love right back to each and all of you during this time of profound grief. And I send that same intensity of love to Matt, too, as he continues on his way.

With love and compassion,
Sarah Crowley 

Dear Mark and  Angie
My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
Sincerely 
Beverly Brown 

Matt was one of the first people I met in college back in 2000 and remained a great friend through all the changes that happened in our lives. He will truly be missed by all who knew him. 

Mark and Angie,
We are so sorry to hear about Matt's passing.  I am also sorry that it has been years since we used to see Mark at Collegiate on an almost daily basis and it now takes this very sad occasion to re-connect.
Please know that Diane and I extend our deepest sympathy.  Our hearts break thinking about what you both must be going through.  Please know that you are in our thoughts.
With condolences,
Adam Max '76 (also Collegiate parent and former trustee)

Mark,
Our family sends you our deepest condolences on the loss of your son. If he was anything like you, he was a very special man. We hope that you can heal and have peace in your heart knowing that you had so many wonderful memories with him. 
-Walter Paller and Family

My heart aches for your family’s loss.  Matt had such a good heart and was always ready to lend a helping hand. He will be missed by all that knew him. 


David and I along with our grandson, Taylor, visited Washington DC when Matt & Amanda lived there.  Taylor was around 7 and we just couldn’t keep up with him.  His excitement and energy was overwhelming.  Matt volunteered to watch over him in the museums (I should say chase him).  The patience and love Matt exhibited toward Taylor is a memory that remains close to our hearts.  Taylor is now 21 but still remembers that special time spent with Matt.  We all loved Matt and the memories of your sweet son will always bring a smile to our faces.
