From Uncle Ken and Aunt Pat #2
We will always miss you and love you, Matt.  We   always remember the times we were with you.  You are greatly missed.
Love Pat and Ken

I joined the Suchan family in 1993, when Ken and I were married.
I met Matt at his son's 2nd birthday in Wichita KS.
He was a quiet          person in comparison to the rest of his family.  I liked  him immediately.
I am so very sad that he lost his life during this very terrible pandemic
Life doesn't feel fair when someone as young as he, leaves us.
Fly on the wings of angels, Matt.   Someday we will reunite in Heaven.
PEACE.


Matt was a great person and a great classmate. We lived the 80's
I'm sorry for your loss.

Matt always made me feel so welcome amongst the Suchan family. He was easy to talk to, and I always thought he beamed good sense and  intelligence. As I became more of a regular around the Suchan crew the longer that my dad and Amy dated, I could always count on Matt (and really everybody in the family for that matter) to have a witty, dry joke ready to go off the cuff in response to something ridiculous my dad was doing or saying at a family get-together. 
Matt could make me laugh, but equally as good humored as he had been, he was also kind. He was good company to be around. A real "chill" guy, you could say. He always showed genuine interest in my life when we'd catch up at BBQ's or holiday gatherings at his and Jennifer's home. In high school, he would volunteer to drive Will all the way to my house in Belaire (from Andale!) to stay, and come back to get him the next day. He was either crazy and enjoyed that drive, or he was a genuinely nice fellow and a great dad who didn't mind a crappy drive in order for his son to have a good time with his cousin. I'd say the latter is more likely. 
I can't imagine how hard this is for Jennifer, Will, Cate, Emme, as well as Kay, his siblings, and the rest of his family. This is so unfair, and I am so sorry that this happened. I love you all immensely and I wish I could take your pain away.

Matt was a delight. I am his cousin and hadn’t seen him or a lot of the family since we were all kids.  I was traveling with a show and we were going to be performing in Wichita. Matt reached out to me after seeing this and asked to reconnect.  He came to the theatre, picked me up between shows and brought  me back to my Uncle Tom’s house where we caught up. It was great to spend time with Matt and Tom and more of the family. I will never get over how kind he was and how great it was that he reached out to connect after so many years.  My heart goes out to his family, he was a special guy!!

I'm really sorry to hear this.   I /we, our families have fond memories growing up in Tallmadge, and many many times at the Suchan house w family.  Matt was my closest friend at that age when you all moved, and I think my earliest childhood friend.  I couldn't have been 9 or 10 years old at the time.  Prayers to you all. :(.  Larry Kovalcik.

I worked with Matt for several years.  He was funny, upbeat, and always willing to have a serious moment listening.  I was shocked when I learned of his death.  
A good man, he did love his Browns and we teased him about their performance , but he was always good for a joke and laughed along with us.  I will remember him fondly, and will never forget his memory.
Sympathy is conveyed to his family.

Kay,
We are with you in spirit as you attend services for Matt.  He was a quiet man, who I didn't get to know well.  He reminded me most of his father, Tom.  He sure looks like Therlow , your Dad.  I am sad and sorry for everything he will miss doing in life as a husband and father and grandfather.
Rest Matt-with The Lord.
Love Pat
