Matt was a true light in this world! One of the first friends I met when we moved to Luxora from Chicago in th 1st grade. He always tried to have a tough exterior but was a bit of a softy. We connected over music,sports, and ministry. Matt was my friend, my classmate, and my argument buddy!!! He will truly be missed! Denim jacket, Mohawks, drum sticks, and Star Wars will never be the same! Love you dude!
