Matt always had a smile on his face and enough laughter to share with everyone. I will miss him, especially at Halloween. He always had a twinkle in his eye. The world has lost another wonderful soul.

A message of Sympathy For the Urso family. May these few words of sympathy help at least in part, to ease the burden that you bear and the sadness in your hearts. Death will not always be an enemy of mankind according to Rev.21:4. Take comforted in knowing that. May the God of comforted be with you. Remember, Jesus pitied those in distress and tried to help them see their individual worth. (Matthew 9:36;11:28-30; 1:14) He explained that God values even small ,insignificant sparrows. "Not one of them goes forgotten before God," he said. How much more does he value humans who try to do his Will! Of these Jesus said "Even the hairs of your heads are all numbered."__Luke 12:6,7.

You will be missed, you are loved and truly one of a kind. I am proud to have you as my good friend, and will treasure my memories always. Danielle
