Title: Baby Matthew.
Post by: Fish Master1 on February 12, 2013, 01:01:46 PM
Some of you are my Friends on facebook and probably have seen me following the story of A little angel that was diagnosed with Lukemia well it took A turn for the worse this last Friday and he has passed away. His family is still in Memphis and are trying to rent an RV for the return of there wonderfull family as well as the ashes of little Matthew. I have followed this storie from the beginning and the support that has gained over this long grueling time is amazing. If you can send whatever it may be to help support in the journey for there return. The link I'm gonna provide may have the full storie and their journey we all have took. God bless this little angel and his family! Rest in peace baby Matthew.....The mother of this child was A High School student with me.

Andy...words can't express how sorry I am about what happened to your baby cousin.

You know if you need anything at all from me or my family you just gotta say the word.

If you can't make it saturday bro, just tell me...meathunter has already volunteered to help with fish measuring and $ collection if need be for the baby matthew PIF, and I have a skillet and burner I can bring to take over frymaster duties.

I want you there so I can give you a big hug and drink some beer with you, but I don't want you to feel presured to be there at all...

Love you bro.

Jim
