Gracias por venir a mi sueno y decirme que me quieres, tu sabes que te quiero con todo el corazon.  Tia Lily.

ten years have passed since your departure.  and I think of you every single day my heart still hurts and I will missed you until the day I die.

I love you.

mom

el tiempo no borra el dolor de haberte perdido, simplemente aprendemos a vivir asi. 

Life is so different without you, you left a huge hole in our lives, we keep going, we have to,  but you are never away from our hearts, I carry you with me, you are a part of me, that will never change, I love you Matt always and forever.

Happy 31st Birthday Matthew. Thinking of you and your family today. 

You are always in my heart, it hurts not to have you around, we miss you and will forever.

Sometimes I have dreams with the three of us, and everything feels normal, but when I wake up it’s just me and Andrew..
I miss my big brother. 

All of the Owen family is in my thoughts and prayers today. I pray that Matthew is experiencing eternal peace and joy. And I pray that his loved ones, left behind to mourn his absence, will experience God's "peace that passes all understanding."

While I don't know you personally, I do understand your pain as I have experienced a similar loss.

A friend of a friend

Yo se que estas muy bien y que algun dia nos volveremos a encontrar, mientras tanto tenemos tu sonrisa grabada en nuestros corazones. Hasta entonces mi matiun te mando piojito hasta el cielo

MI MARIPOSA MONARCA QUE PARTISTE EN UN VUELO SIN RETORNO,SIN DESPEDIDAS SIN AVISOS TE FUISTE SÓLO... A TU BOSQUE.
MATTHEW...TE DIGO Y SÉ QUE ME ESCUCHAS, SERÁS IRREMEDIABLEMENTE RECORDADO Y AMADO POR SIEMPRE.TÍA BUMY

It's been a year now since you have passed.. I still think about you everyday and that will never change. I'll always love you, Andy.

I am happy that I got to know you, you will always be in my thoughts.

Tio.

You will always be in our hearts. Rest in peace. 

Tio Tibor, Tia Lily, Carina y Larissa.

"If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to Heaven
And bring you home again."
Dear Becky, Rob, Andrew and Becky, we are with you despite the distance. A candle has been lit. 
Ger, Liz, Pe, Lu.

My thoughts and prayers to the Owen family today and especially on Monday, as we all remember Matthew, gone too soon, a year ago.

Gone, but not forgotten

Missed and loved forever

Rest in peace Matthew

SIEMPRE ESTARÁS CON NOSOTROS MI MATTHEW ADORADO. GRACIAS POR TU SONRISA ,GRACIAS POR TU SINCERIDAD Y GRACIAS POR ESE ABRAZO DE TODOS LOS DÍAS QUE ME REGALASTE HASTA QUE PARTISTE!

Thinking of the Owen family as days approach another painful and difficult day. There are few words to say, to bring any relief to your pain...no remedy to cure your loss. Just know you do not travel this road alone. Others are here along side you.

Christmas and new years without you were very hard. I miss you so much. It hurts not to be able to hear your voice, to see your smile. I will always miss you.

Love mama

IT IS STILL SO HARD TO ACCEPT, YOU ARE ALWAYS IN OUR THOUGHTS, IN OUR HEARTS, WE PRAY THAT YOU ARE AT PEACE. WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU, ALWAYS WILL.

Praying for Matthew and all of the Owen family in a special way today and throughout the Christmas season. Please know that you're in many people's thoughts and prayers.

MATT EN LA NAVIDAD VIMOS VIDEOS DONDE ESTABAS BABY FUÉ HERMOSO TENERTE PRESENTE EN LA CENA DE NAVIDAD HERMOSO BABY E INOLVIDABLES RECUERDOS MI AMOR VIVIRÁS EN NUESTROS CORAZONES POR SIEMPRE!

Matthew, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers especially on this day.

Matt, now that you are in Heaven, close to God, send your parents and your siblings on this Holly Day many blessings, beautiful loving moments and a lot of love to somehow compensate your absence.

TU AUSENCIA EN ESTA NAVIDAD VÁ A HACER MÁS EVIDENTE TU PRESENCIA...POR FAVOR MATT TRAENOS RESIGNACIÓN A TODA LA FAMILIA. TE EXTRAÑAREMOS POR SIEMPRE

His smile, his voice, little details... these memories will help push the pain away and bring some comfort to our family.

This is our first christmas without you, and everybody feels it.. I miss you more and more everyday and I'll never forget you. You're always in my dreams.
Love, Andy

Truly a very difficult time for the Owen family, missing their loved one, Matthew.

I still think about you everyday, and I always will Andy

Han pasado casi cinco meses de tu partida,pero el corazon no sabe de tiempo te tengo tan presente como siempre aun siento ese dolor y angustia que no quiere desaparecer.

mi amor es eterno

mama

Suddenly my eyes are filled with tears, I can not breath, there is a sharp pain in my chest and I feel anger, I feel sadness. God wanted you, but we still need you, we want to share our lives with you, we need you and it hurts so bad not having you. I love you so much, I hope you knew that, I will always love you and carry you in my heart my muchachote.

I'll never learn to live without you nor will I ever want to accept the fact that you've gone to a better place. There isn't a single day that goes by where little things randomly remind me of you whether its something I see on TV or something I hear somebody say. You are always on my mind and will always loved. Being at home in my room next to yours feels vacant without you coming to visit... 
You are a constant thought on all of our minds, and it will stay this way forever.
Love, Andy.

When I sleep... I see you.
when im awake, I think of you.
Not a moment goes by without you on my mind.

Rest in peace, I had only met you once, but it was an honour. <3 stay strong Andy, Becky and the rest of the Owen family

MATIUN...SABEMOS QUE NUNCA TE VAMOS A OLVIDAR!!! PERO SÓLO DIOS SABE CUANDO DEJAREMOS DE EXTRAÑARTE TANTO. PUES SIGUE SIENDO TAN TRISTE TU AUSENCIA QUE DUELE.

Happy 23rd Matty! I'm really glad I got to meet you, although our friendship was cut too short. Rest in Paradise, we'll always remember you <3

Today's your 23rd birthday Matthew. You were such a nice friend and always smiling. I will always remember spending New Years 2012 with you & sharing so many stories. You are in Gods hands now. Rest in paradise - xo i miss you 
Love, Shawna

Dear God, Please help those who are hurting right now, especially Matthew's mom, dad, brother and sister. Guide them and place your arms around them to comfort them and give them strength. Amen.

Praying in a special way today for the Owen family. I didn't know Matthew but, from everything that's been written about him here, it's clear how special he was and how much he was, and will continue to be, loved.

Matthew:

Today, on your birthday, you would turn 23.
Many people still remember you, even those who have not met you. You have left your family with beautiful memories. They want to carry on with the memories of their loved one, who was taken too soon. You shall never be forgotten as your name will always be spoken.

Rest in Peace as you remain FOREVER YOUNG.

Today we stand, 
Where you took your last steps,
Your last breathe.
And remember all that you have given us,
The love that we have for you will never fade.
May you find everlasting peace

Today is your 23rd birthday and the first one we celebrate without you. This day will serve as a reminder of the beautiful times we spent with you. Not one birthday will go unrecognized, we all love and miss you, family and friends. I will always look up to you;

Love, Andy.

Twenty three years ago I had my new born in my arms for the first time; you were a great gift from God and now he takes his gift back and leaves me with years of wonderful memories. I can't see you anymore but I carry you in my heart.

God, the only thing I ask is; please don't take my memories away.

Love, Mama.

in four days, 
it will be your birthday.
The first one our family spends without you.
every year we will gather and remember you, we all love you very much.

Your clothes are still hung,
Your bed is made… 
Waiting for you to come home.

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near;
Still loved, still missed and always dear.

2 months since your passing :
Your family chain's been broken
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls you one by one
The chain will link again.

In my thoughts and prayers.
Rest in Peace

Its hard to grasp the fact that you will never walk through the door,
You'll never be home for dinner,
Or another holiday.
That I'll never hear you speak again
And all I have left is our memories.
Loosing you has been the hardest thing our family has ever faced.

You live on in the hearts left behind, Love you

I think about you everyday, I always miss you.. your little brother Andy

NOT A DAY GOES BY, THAT I DON'T THINK OF YOU.  I LOVE YOU SWEETY. TIA.

Dear Owen family,
Please know that I am praying for comfort and peace for you and Matthew, along with my daily prayers for my nephew and godson Justin - who died tragically late last year - and his family and friends who are grieving.
God bless you and keep you in His loving care.

A month has passed and you are still in our thoughts and prayers. Also praying for your grieving family. Hoping you are experiencing eternal peace.
