Matt was a wonderful, loving, caring, outgoing young man. He loved his friends and family wholeheartedly. He enjoyed meeting and engaging new friends and bringing them into his heart. He would interact on your level, which allowed you to accept and enjoy being around him. He will be greatly missed by all he touched.
