Dear Alyssa and family,
I am so sorry for your loss of the special person that was Matthew.  This is such a painful loss that touches many.  May you find comfort during this time by the friends and family that remain, that love you, that care and are thinking about you, sending up kind thoughts and prayers for you.  May you be kind to yourselves during this very painful time of life.  May you live to feel joys of life even amidst the pain, and find ease of mind, body, and spirit. 
Shirley Martin


Dear Sherri,
What can one say during a time such as this? Words do not seem to be quite enough, nor can they convey the emotion one truly feels. As a parent myself, I cannot imagine what you must be feeling right now. As you move through this space and time of unimaginable emotions, please know that God still walks with you and your family. I am certain that your son will forever be remembered for his acts of kindness, love of family, and in each heart he touched. Even though I cannot help to ease your pain, I will keep your son and family in my prayers. May the Lord hold you in His divine hands and walk with you.

To the family of Matthew Mata,
I did not know Matthew personally, but did see him in and out of our office often.  I pray that the peace that passes all understanding will surround you, and you will feel God's strong and loving arms comforting you.

Dear Sherri:

I am so saddened to hear of the untimely loss of your son Matthew.   I can hardly imagine your despair.  I hope that as you engage your strength to move forward, you will be girded by the love and support of family and friends.  My thoughts and prayers go out to you and those who share in your grief.  

Sincerely,
William Brown



Sherri,
Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss of Matthew. He was so funny and sweet and an all-around fantastic young man and father. Please know that you, Ashley, Ana, and Penelope are in my thoughts and prayers.
If you would allow me to, I would like to share my mother’s favorite poem and hope that it might bring an ounce of comfort to you and your family at this sad time.
I love you my friend!

Pathway of Pain
If my days were untroubled and my heart always light, 
would I seek that fair land where there is no night?
If I never grew weary with the weight of my load, 
would I search for God’s peace at the end of the road?

If I never knew sickness and never felt pain, 
would I reach for a hand to help and sustain?
If I walked without sorrow and lived without loss
would my soul seek solace at the foot of the cross?

If all I desired was mine day by day, 
would I kneel before God and earnestly pray?
If God sent no winter to freeze me with fear, 
would I yearn for the warmth of spring every year?

I ask myself these and the answer is plain,
If my life were all pleasure and I never knew pain -
I’d seek God less often and need Him much less,
for God is sought more often in times of distress.

And no one knows God or sees Him as plain -
As those who have met Him on the "Pathway of Pain"

I am so sorry for your loss.  Mathew and Alyssa were my nursing students at TCC their first semester. Please know that I am praying for all.  May God comfort you at this difficult time.

Sherri and family,  I was so sad to hear of the death of Matthew.  I met him at South Campus in 2013.  I remember his engaging smile and passion for his field of study.  My heart breaks for you!
In times like this is it hard to understand and the question of "why" comes to mind.    Please know
you are in my prayers each hours in the coming days.   Your friend and WINR possee member, Trish

Dear Sherri,
Our hearts are with you in the loss of your son. We ache for you  and the future that was ahead for your son. We have known untimely bereavement and it has become a part of our being.  Janine and Howard Lund

Sherri my dear sweet friend.  I am so sorry to hear of your loss.  Please know my family will have you in our prayers.  Know that I am always there to lend a shoulder and ear.

Sherri,Ashley, Ana and family, I was stunned to hear about the loss of Matt. Please Lord wrap your arm's around this family and comfort them at this very difficult time. I will miss seeing Matt at the dental office.  He always made me smile and laugh.  I don't understand why it was your turn to go to the Lord but understand we have no say in who goes and when.  Fly with the angels Matt and live forever young in Heaven.
