The Matthew blessing,

 


The Matthew blessing,

May God grant us enough stupidity to believe?
We can go from this place and make the world a better place, May we witness God`s work in creation, be inspired, rested and fit to look after this world he created.

Reflection 

Close and blessing

Matthew was above all things a lover of nature.

He was educated in Animal husbandry, specialised in exotic animals, Qualified at Bishop Burton agricultural collage.

It’s here enjoyed Life so much despite long day’s very early hours.

Why he had `upside down catfish, Geckos, corn snakes, and a rat'. With huge passion for music, loved gardening growing Leeks, Spuds, Courgettes and many varieties of Tomatoes. Often witnessed him coming out of greenhouse eating plum tomato.

Gathering with family, plus friend’s uncle’s, aunts, nephews and nieces. He was the father of Jessica. Matthew was Kevin's only son they held a special relationship.

Hope we are proud to have known Matthew, and witnessed his achievements. Collage time, work with the council, youth children’s work with Kevin, Matthew really well loved by those who encountered his, quite reflective nature at Youth gatherings. Residentials, actually especially 'Greenbelt', were places he enjoyed the most. We must not forget his illness, the battle fought so bravely.W e love and miss Matthew.

Let us not forget him.

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
