Hey Matt,
I heard of your passing at an improv practice. You were a good man and a genuine soul...a true northwesterner whose humility, love of life and open heart always brought a smile to my face. We met enjoying the spirit of creativity in improv, and many times on stage I saw you happy and brimming with stoke and good vibes, so me and a few of your fellow players decided to end practice with a set in your honor. You would have enjoyed it. We will miss you, and remember, rap brother.
Matt was in the first sketch comedy show I ever did. He was a really sweet guy and everyone in the Seattle comedy community will miss him. Here's a video of the show, hopefully some of his family and friends who couldn't be there can enjoy seeing him make people laugh. He was really good at it. ❤️

Thank you from the Fitzsimmons Family
Dear Friends:
Thank you so much for the tremendous outpouring of love and support for Matt. His passing was a shock to all of us and we feel the incredible loss of our son/brother/uncle. Knowing that not everyone does facebook, we created this site as a hub of remembrance for Matt that will live on in perpetuity. Even though you posted on facebook, please repost it here as my parents don't do facebook and it would mean the world to them to see the photos and experience your memories.
We take comfort in knowing Matt was an organ donor and his gift will help over a 100 people with his donation. We are going to do a private ceremony for Matt in the summer to celebrate his life. But if you are doing one in your community, please feel free to share it here and on facebook.
We are profoundly grateful for your presence in Matt's life. It's really clear that he was loved and cherished by so many.
With love,
The Fitzsimmmons Family
