MATT AND I WERE CLOSE FRIENDS SINCE BOYSCOUTS AT ST. LUKES TROOP 770. WE STAYED IN TOUCH FOR YEARS UNTIL HE MOVED NORTH OF DALLAS. I WAS TOLD BY A MUTUAL FRIEND AFTER HIS FUNERAL THAT HE DIED OF A HEART ATTACK SEVERAL YEARS AGO. I HAD THE BRAIN ANEURYSM EXPLODE AND I LIVED. IT DOESN'T MAKE MUCH SENSE WHY I LIVED AND MATT DIDN'T. GOD HAS HIS PLAN AND HASN'T TOLD ME. I THINK OF HIM OFTEN. I'M STILL LOOKING FOR THE REASON AND HOPE AND PRAY I FIGURE IT OUT SOON, SO I CAN GET ON WITH HIS PLAN FOR ME. UNTIL THEN I WILL LET GO AND LET 'GOD'

Matt was a smaller guy and very likable. We weren't really close, but I considered him a friend. Wish you were here, Matt, to party with us.....Bob Holland

Wow.... Matt had come to at least one of our earlier reunions. Sorry to read this.
