Matthew,
On this day six years ago, our lives were forever changed. I am here today just to let you know how much we all love and miss you. There are so many memories and things that I have thought about today. The day you were born, How you grew up and the lives that you touched while you were here with us on earth. I am sad because I miss you so much but, I also know that you are in a better place and that I will see you again. Thank you Matthew! You are still my hero, my friend and my son.
I love you!
Dad

I only knew Matthew when he was a baby. I lived with the Hubbards for a year, from 1992-1993, and was nanny to Andrew and Matthew, assistant at Julie’s daycare and friend to Bill & Julie. I did not find out about what happened until 5 years ago, but i rememebr it everyday. The first time I saw Matthew I thought he looked like Paul Simon in baby form. He was chillin’ in his crib when I walked in, he gave me that cute little sideways grin. I grew to love them all as my family that year. I took Matthew to get his shots, he didn’t cry. I saw him fall backward off the slide, he got up and tried again. I saw him learn to walk and talk and develop that wonderful little personality we miss so much. I loved the reason you we called you ‘Mapper’ and his little ‘bed bodies’ , the little wrinkles you have when you wake up from a nap (as Julie called them). My boyfriend Curtis and I would take Andrew and Matthew to the park, to the mall, out to eat, and he was so well behaved, amazed by everything around him. He was the most wonderful, happy, smiley, chill baby I have ever met. I am truly saddened that the world will not know him as everyone on this page knew him. Rest eternally by the Lord’s side in Heaven. May your soul surround your family and friends so they can feel you by their side until it is their time to see you again, grant them the strength to live life in your memory.

Hey Matt,
It seems like it was just yesterday that you, your dad, Andrew and me were watching Van Halen in Anaheim. I know that you are looking down at us all while you are practicing on your bass. I expect that you have already found John Entwistle, and the student is ready to surpass the master. I know some that may read this don’t understand what I’m babbling about, but I know you understand. RIP my friend, “punk is not dead.”
