I met Mr.Matthis when I worked as a nanny caring for his newborn firstborn granddaughter Meg. He had came up to Pittsburgh for a visit back in 2002. I can still see him sitting on the couch with his cowboy hat on. His kind demeanor towards me the help did not go unnoticed. He had an incredible sweet spirit. He spoke to me briefly. He was so proud of his son and family. I as a fellow believer could tell he shared my faith. No Mr. Matthis is not lost, for we know exactly where he is. Heaven gained a beautiful person when he passed. Prayers for his precious family he so loved.
