With deepest sympathy for the loving family of Matthew Zivat. May all find comfort in having known this loyal, caring, happy, fun man, husband, brother, brother-in-law and uncle. May he find comfort and joy in the open arms of his Mom, Jesus and the angels.

One of the nicest guys I met on the job. I lit a candle while in Florida, and sad a prayer in church for him and Ralph. Both stand up men!
