"I met Matt several years ago at work and we shared many lunches on Thursdays. I had a big personal loss several months ago and Matt reached out several times to make sure I was OK (much more than some family members) and offer to do a few things together. I was not aware that he was dealing with his own issues, and maybe I should have noticed, but he didn't show it or talked about that part of him. We even made plans to have lunch on the first week of October when he was coming to Tampa for the last time and I was looking forward to that. He was always ready to help and offered to help me so many times. He was a good and generous friend. I am going to miss Matt a lot and our lunches on Thursdays. I'm sorry for your loss.

"Mariah, Your Dad was a very amazing, caring, helpful, selfless and intelligent man. He always put everyone before himself. When my oldest called me and told me about his passing it broke my heart. You always meant the world to him I'm glad you and Nakita have been able to connect with each other. Both of your are very strong, amazing, beautiful young ladies. You guys are also both amazing mommas. Stay strong, I can't tell you it will get better because everyone heals differently. Just know you have many people you can talk to "
