I was 8 (now im 12) when I saw matt at school and am also hispanic and I said I want to be like him RIP

dang the was mess up who someone just took his life away like that! always in my heart matty g.

Matt was a great person, a great friend. I knew him for a long time. He would always want to make sure everybody was happy. You could always tell that that was him that entered a room because he would have a huge smile on his face. His smile was undescribable. I loved Matt very much and so did all of fairfield. Yes we lost him but we also gained so much as a community and those who truley love matt will work hard to KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE.

Matt was the finest indeed. Fairfield has lost a great man. He was only 22, but he contributed so much, and he was loved by so many. His memory will live on.
