Matt, you were my precious friend for 40 years. I remember so many things from those early years, like the exhibition line dancing we did for the state fair. You, me, and Wes side by side as we hid behind everyone else, and so many other laughs!!! I’m so very grateful that we were able to spend a week together at my house a couple of years ago. Missing you… Praying for your family, that God will grant them His peace. You’re loved!
