Hello to everyone reading this and especially to Matt... I sure wish we can talk right about now... Things crazy and right now would be a good time to pontificate on the state of things - I can't imagine what you would say. So anyway, I visit your grave a couple times a month. I think you have one of the best spots in the whole place. Its secluded with a bench & tree for shade. Theres usually fresh flowers in a Pepperdine mug and now theres a bunch of pumpkins and great big orange flowers. I left some baseball cards and someone left you a couple hand written notes. I bet your Dad is going to get you nice headstone - but I guess it takes forever for those things to be made.
Anyway Matt & Anyone else thats reading this - I should get going, its late and I need to plan my agenda for a big week ahead. Will this be the week I get my act together? I hope so, its up to me after all... I wanted you to be a part of what I'm trying to accomplish and to share in the achivement. Even though your not here now, you've still had a big influence on my life. Thanks Matt... talk to you later bro... And to those of you who are not Matt, If you enjoyed this I wrote more...... and you can read it on my Yahooka blog... and please post comments, I like feedback...

Just got back from your funeral Matt, it was crazy seeing you lay there, it didn't look real... they took off your goatee but that was probably for your Dad, the whole thing was basicly for your Dad - he was cool. He was even cool to Steve and Shawn... Peace Out Brother!

Matt.... I love you buddy! Your in a better place now....
