I attended high school with Matt.  He was always very fun and was very well respected among those who knew him. 
So sorry for you loss.
Tina Warrick Newman, Class of 1977

It is hard to lose the ones we love but know they are in a much better place and waiting in the grace of God.

We're very for your loss. You are in our prayers, Brenda & David McFarland

Even though I only spent 4 short days with Matt in Atlanta in class, I realized immediately he was someone I would look forward to working with in the future. The world would be a better place if we had more people like Matt. May he rest in peace.

Matt, you will be missed.  See you in heaven bud...

Matt, may you find everlasting peace and happiness in Gods loving presence. He has called you home to be with Him forever. It will be tough for those you have left behind. You will be missed while you are away but we will see you again. My deepest condolences to your family and friends. You will always be in my prayers. Eternal rest grant unto him Oh Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him, may he rest in peace.

A man who will always be thought of, missed, and loved.

Matt, I will forever miss you. You were always so happy and fun to be around. I looked forward to seeing you everyday. I walk past your work area and still look for you. I know you're not there but I'm still waiting for you to come back. Andy, Rudi and I are missing you everyday.. We still have a lot to talk about.. We'll see you again.. May you rest in peace my friend!! One day I'll see ya again.
