It came as a shock to me when I heard the news, and I'm more upset that I thought I would be. Having been Matthew's girlfriend for over a year, I became really close with his family. I'll never forget last Christmas,or the time when we all went to Philly for New Year's.
He was such a great, talented person, as well as a great father to his kids. He will truly, truly be missed. I'll keep all of you in my prayers.
love,
Shelby
