I will forever cherish our talks when you called Grandmas house just to hear someone answer on the other end. Jackie, Jane & Joan, you're blessed to have been able to spend the last few months with Matt. Love you all❤

So sorry about your loss dear cousins. I remember the cutest little kid that he was. It seems like yesterday. I am lost for words. I fractured my 2 ankle bones and then the pandemic too, or I would have shown up to see all of you. I am still crawling around at home. Again, you have my sympathy to have lost another brother so young.
