Matt, I always looked up to you as a big brother. I met you when I was eighteen years old thru friends and lived with you for a good while. I was a family of girls and you always joked about the fact I grew up watching Care Bears and My little Pony! I always respected you because you accomplished many obstacles in the military and in the life you lived and always came out positive. You were a very loyal man and turned out to be a phenomenal father. I always appreciated the times we had floating down the river, playing beer pong, and watching "Sopranos". I was glad I was able to visit you before you went to Heaven and I know you are watching down on everyone smiling and feeling joy. You were a good friend and always had my back thru the years. I love you Matt Dennis! You are superman even in heaven!!
