He was very close to his older sister, Veronica, and she was with him through many adventures. When Matt got sick Veronica was with him through everything.
I remember Matt when he was little, and he was so cute and funny. Always had a smile on his face.
I will miss him, and forever will think of him.. Too young to leave this world, but he will always be remembered.
Love always Matt
Love Your Aunt Sherrie🩷💙
