Matthew Herring

Son, brother, handsome, fun, loving

What Matthew was like

Through my eyes my son was the most beautiful boy/man that walked the earth. He dreamt big, he wanted to be a professional football player. He loved dressing to the t, fast cars, and beautiful women. He hated his disease and wanted nothing more than to live a “normal” life. He was loved by everyone and is forever in our hearts.

Fondest memories of Matthew

One of my most favorite memories of my son is when his father and I surprised him with his first car. He was so happy.

How Matthew will be missed

I miss his laugh. I miss having to wait a long time to use the bathroom because he would spend a long time showering and looking at himself in the mirror. But most of all I miss the love that he and I shared.

How Matthew will be remembered

As a fun, crazy, loving person that wanted nothing more than to make a lot of money, have fun, be happy, healthy, and loved.
