Matthew Arrellano Paglino was welcomed into this World with great joy on October 16, 1988, by his proud parents, who are grateful for the 25 years God blessed them with Matthew’s life. He went home June 23, 2014 and now stands in the presence of God.
Matthew was a beautiful, bright soul, yet he was a respectful and humble young man. He believed you could have and do anything you wanted, if you were willing to work for it. Matthew didn’t waste life’s moments, he would say, "I can’t worry about tomorrow, I have to live for today, I have to go to bed at night knowing I did everything I wanted to do today, I don’t want to leave anything for tomorrow". He’d rise with the sun and do as much as he could before the sunset again.
Matthew lived for his family and friends. He will be dearly missed my those he has left behind, his parents, Rick and Rosie Paglino; and his brothers and sisters, Anthony Olvera, Gina Mari Paglino, Antoinette Solis and her husband, Fabian, RJ Paglino and Rosa Paglino, all whom he loved and who loved him. Matthew was proud to be an Uncle and was very active in the lives of his nephews, Dominick Solis, Julius Castillo and Mycah Solis, the joy of his heart was his niece, Annabella Solis.
To the rest of his family and friends Matthew will always be remembered for his quick and infectious smile, for his generous spirit and kindness, for his fun loving, live every moment attitude; most importantly Matthew will be remembered as the one who would walk beside you when everyone else turned their back, for he was always a true and faithful friend.
