Matthew Sims

Today has to be a very difficult day for the parents and loved ones of Matthew.  I'm sure in the few short years of his life, he made a lot of very positive connections with all those who knew him.  It is sad that Matthew left this Earth so soon, but God knows the reasons for this terrible loss; and His will can be accomplished even in all the sorrow.  The lives that were touched and made better by knowing such a wonderful, sweet, young man will always hold his memory close and thank God for the opportuity of being in his life.   May God bless and comfort his grieving parents and bring them joy in their hearts knowing their son was so loved and well-thought of by all his friends and family.

I will always fondly remember this polite, tall and extremely handsome gentleman, especially  Matt's infectious smile.
 

Smiling is infectious,
We catch it like the flu.
When Matthew smiled at me,
I started smiling too.

I fondly remember Matthew's smile,
And realize its worth.
A single smile of Matt's,
Could infect everyone on earth.

Fondly recalling Matthew's smile,
I remember communication perfected,
If you remember Matt's smile,
You too can once again be infected.
