There could be insanly personal things in them that no one was ever ment to read. I personally wouldn't recommend reading other people's mail. While it might make you feel insanly connected to his life and person, I feel that it would just leave you feeling a longing and would not add to the personal grieving we do for the dead and our loss.
My logical side says that these notes weren't intended for you so let them lie. I am personally in my home state for the first time since the death of a good good friend of mine and there is a day that I intend to take a letter I have writen her. There I will sit and meditate for a while and then burn my letter with some herbs, sending it off into the Universe. I would feel sorta funny if someone read my letter, had I left it there, but would understand how it's a white elephant to others. I choose to burn the letter not to avoid that , but to follow my beliefs.
If I did leave the letter there I'd hope that it introduced someone to the side of Meredith that I knew, that perhaps they didn't. But I over all I don't think that its the right thing to do, reading the letters of others.
Where ever Matthew is and is doing I hope it brings the soul relief and new found glory.
Blessed be
