Condolences

Please know that we are mourning with you the Loss of Matt, who was not only a Dear Friend, but Family. A truly wonderful, funny, fun loving, Amazing guy that meant more than words can say to us and many others. We met Matt in 1986, when he moved here and worked with Mike. We immediately set out for Las Vegas, the first of many memorable trips. Our Daughter Kristle, 2yo, and Matt hit it off instantly with one ribbing the other. Matt was instantly family. We even had the same car. So many laughs our ribs hurt. Matt used to say we were cut from the same cloth. Matt moved to Northridge soon after, closer to us. Matt was Uncle Matt and in 1989 Lauren was added, Matt being our go to for Kristle. Holidays always included Matt and our lives were Happy. Many vacations together to Laughlin, Colorado River, Vegas, Lake Mohave and Hawaii. Matt was always there to lend a helping hand and was involved with our move to Laguna Niguel. Matt loved our many pets and always had a treat for them. Jet Skiing until we were exhausted and walking down the Vegas Strip we never stopped laughing. We were always Matt's Family for his great Company Picnics usually at Magic Mountain.
How can you sum up over 30 years of Loving Friendship?
Matt, The Man, The Legend, The Golfer, The Gambler, The Water Sports Titan, The Friend, has forever found a place in our Hearts.
The memories still provide laughs while our hearts ache.
Until we meet again, We Love you Buddy.

My sincere condolences to Matt's family. He and I went through 4 years at Notre Dame together. He was a great guy and everybody's buddy. May he Rest in Peace.
