Matt, you will definately be missed. We all loved you very much. I wish we would've talked about the problems before you left, but I know the problems are behind us. You were a good friend to me and I will never forget all our memories of fishing, playing cards, and how fun it was to grow up with you! Love you Bro! Gone but never forgotten, Shane L Garr!
