LARRY, I AM LOOKING AT THE PICTURE OF YOUR SON MAT AND I SEE YOU. THE EMOTIONS THAT I FEEL ARE HARD TO EXPLAIN, EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT I AM DEEPLY SORRY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. MAT LOOKS SO HAPPY AND IS SO NICE LOOKING. I CAN ASSUME THAT HE WAS JUST LIKE HIS DAD, A WONDERFUL PERSON. I HAVE HAD MY SHARE OF UPS AND DOWNS AS DO EVERYONE, BUT IT IS HARD TO LOSE A CHILD. MY PRAYERS AND CHRISTIAN LOVE GO OUT TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. YOU SAVED MY LIFE, LARRY WHEN YOU MADE ME SEE THE ERROR IN MY WAYS. I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU OR YOUR FAMILY. YOUR FRIEND RONNIE KAY CABANISS. GOD BLESS MATHEW CROOKS##imported-begin##RONNIE CABANISS##imported-end##

Larry, Diana, Sylvia, Robin,and Monte,
My heart is breaking for the tragic loss of our precious Matthew. Words cannot express what he meant to me. I remember when he was just a little boy, he would always want me to feel of his muscles. Of course, I would. I would make a big deal about them and that would put a huge smile on his face. That never changed. The last time I saw him on Thanksgiving at my house I said, Matthew let Aunt Karen feel those BIG muscles,like the little boy he use to be he flexed his muscles and smiled. I want yall to know that I loved him very much. But I know through God's infinite mercy he is going to see this family through this tragic time. I love you my dear family. May God Bless you and comfort you.
Matthew's Aunt

I am Matt's father and as of current date, January 15 2004, I have read all of the kind comments relating to my dear son Matthew.
Thank you for being his friend, teacher, relative or whatever positive influence and help you provided to Matt. I miss Matt and yearn for his presence and I love him with all my being. He was a wonderful person. A parent should
never have to lay his children to rest and should be the other way around. What can a parent say concerning the loss of a dear son? Words fail but I do know that there is a great plan being worked out here below. The creator God has a wonderful future in store for all mankind. I know Matt will be brought back again. God will bring him back to life again, call him, open his mind and give him hope and a great future.
I look forward to seeing you again my son. Dad##imported-begin##Larry Crooks##imported-end##
