I read about you on a TikTok account about missing persons. It made me really sad to see your beautiful smile knowing you were struggling inside. I hope you have found your peace and your suffering is over. I wish you could have talked to someone about your struggles so you might still be here today. Rest easy.

Matt, I met you when I stayed with your mom Donna while I looked for a place to live in Boulder. I cherish that time with both of you. I helped her with your 5th birthday party, and I remember how I hoped I would be as good of a mom as Donna some day. Wishing you peace and love.

Wild About Books

September 3, 2021
by Coach Stacey Lee
I have vivid memories of Matthew's appetite for books and being read to. I would be visiting with Donna in the evening and Matthew insisted that Donna read him many stories from multiple books. It was like he was a kid in the candy store ... he couldn't get enough! I recall his enthusiasm,  SMILES and CHARM with great Joy! He loved immersing himself in the stories!!!

You were such a sweet boy with a thirst for knowledge.

Blessings and Love to you.



Time with the Varanis

July 31, 2020
by Annette Langley
...then there was that time that Matt came with us to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science to hear a talk about cats in Egyptian art.  

It did not go well because the speaker had fortified her courage to the point that she could barely speak.  

Unfortunately we had taken front row seats, so while the auditorium emptied out hour by hour we stayed put..... 

However we laughed like crazy all the way home to Boulder because Mathew started to recite key phrases from the talk that sent us into paroxysms of mirth. He saved the day.

Lovely Matthew. We all miss you like crazy.


Fond Memories of a Joyful Loving Boy

August 11, 2012
by Stacey Sherman Lee
Another memory I treasure were the times we use to hang out at my house in the canyon and watch movies together - Matthew loved to cuddle with my cat, Mousey. He never wanted to leave. He was also a great hugger - he made me smile inside and out! I have fond  memories of Matthew playing on the rocks in the creek and at the park , Matthew and Donna were like family to me when I was far from home. Forever grateful I remain. Thank you Matt Hugs and Kisses to you dear one. Thank you Donna!! I love you.
