Godfather and Uncle, Growing up with you was cool. When I look at my brothers and the way they interact with my kids I’m reminded of how you were as an uncle growing up. Lots of love and middle fingers.

Matos family,
I hope you can forgive me for taking this long to reach out. Forgive me for being selfish, but I could not offer my condolences without having the perfect words to express just how truly sorry I am. I know that you will get through this tough time and overcome the pain by staying together like the close family you are. I pray for you daily and I hope during this time you draw closer to God; for He is nearest to the brokenhearted. I am thankful for the wonderful times and all the love that you shared with your dad. The world is truly a better place to live in because of all of you. He had a big part in making you who you are as a family and individually. If there is anything I can do, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
With all of my love,
Chrissie
