Matt would want his friends to know that without them he couldn’t have fought as hard as he did. No one gave up on him. Through the five years of his battle, his friends were constantly around him. He would want to thank all of you for being there for him. It meant so much to him to have such a devoted ground of friends. You made his life complete, and he loved each and every one of you.
