I am deeply saddened by your loss. My thoughts are with your family during this difficult time. I only knew Matt for a short time, but I will cherish the time we spent together and our lengthy political debates most of all.
Miss you Matty!

I just found out and I am blown away. I haven't seen Matt in years, but I grew up with him and have so many childhood memories that have Matt in them. I don't know any of the details, I don't need to, but what a sad day it is to learn this news. The O'Connnell's are a truly great family. My condolences to them.

Just so every understands the piece was miss spelled because of a joke Matt and I had when he worked with us.
We laughed for hours on that one.
