    Rest In Peace Matthew. My name is also Matthew Ledoux born on may 10 just a day apart from each other. I played football in high school (right tackle) and I'm also a Boston fan! I did not know you but I have come to your page on here over the years and just wanted to say I would have liked to have had this conversation with you if I had the chance today. You seemed like a great guy. Rest In Peace

    RICH, KIM AND BOYS We are so sorry to hear the terrible news about matt. There is no greater loss than the loss of a child! We remember when you lived on Michelson Drive, a few years back and the neighborhood boys would just get together and go out to play street hockey or some kind of game or get ready for football, but no matter what matt was doing, he would always take the time to say hi to gerry and i. Matt was always polite and respectful to us and we will never forget that! We hope you find strength and comfort in the days, weeks and months to come and know that he is always with you. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you, amanda and your extended family. The Finerty Family

I cant get over that your really gone. to look at your picture and remember the days of seeing eachother in hallways and clasess together... We will all miss you Matt!! Rest In Peace!!! I have writting a little poem that id like to share with everyone. [I write poetry] thought this would be something nice to do.... RIP Matt xoxo Light a candle for those we mourn. Into a new life they will be born. Do not look for them at the gravesite. They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light. They have gone to a new world where there is no darkness, no pain. Their light and essence will always remain. Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place. They are free to travel through time and space. When we think of them, they are near. When we sit in a beautiful garden. Their voices we hear. When we listen to a divine symphony, We close our eyes, their faces we see. Light a candle for they have not really gone. With each flickering flame, in your hearts they will always belong.

  • 05/25/2021

    Matt you brought such joy when you were born, and you were taken from us much too soon. Grampy and I can remember when you took your first steps while visiting us in Florida.

    Even though I am a speaker of the Gospel, the GOOD NEWS from God that is supposed to be the most joyful news there is, it would not be enough at this time to ease the hearts of those who have lost their treasured loved one. I write this through tears that fall from my eyes in sympathy for the bereaved, as I read the heartfelt thoughts of Matthew's grandparents, fiancee', family, and friends. There is no greater kind of loss to be suffered on this earth than when a parent suffers the death of their child. For no matter the age of the child, to the parents, they have lost their baby. I'm so very sorry for your loss, and I pray God's blessing on your hearts and lives, to give you the courage to bear it, and the strength to continue.

  • 05/25/2021

    Richie, Kim & Family, Our Thoughts & Prayers are with you at this most difficult time. Prayer is a powerful thing please keep strong & well. GOD BLESS YOU ALL from NC Love Robin & Scott MacAlister & Family

    Dear Kim and Rich, In a perfect world no parent would ever have to endure the loss of a child.It was not meant to be that way, Your pain is a pain no parent wants to feel.

    Rick, Kim, Andrew and Joe We are so sorry. May Matt Rest in Peace knowing how much he is loved.

  • 05/25/2021

    Kim, Rich, Andrew, Joe, Shirley and Amanda.........My thoughts and prayers are with you. Matt was like a son to me and will be truly missed. He brought such joy into our family and the memories are all special. His beautiful smile and positive atitude towards life will live on in our hearts forever. I am on an endless journey through eternity...... In the infinity of life, all is perfect, whole, and complete. The cycle of life is also perfect, whole, and complete. There is a time of beginning, a time of growth, a time of being, a time of withering or wearing out, and a time of leaving. This is all part of the perfection of life. I sense it as normal and natural, and though saddened at times, I accept the cycle and its rhythms. Sometimes there is an abrupt ending in mid-cycle. I am jarred and feel threatened. Someone dies too soon, or something was smashed and broken. However, I know that life is ever-changing. There is no beginning and no end, only a constant cycling and recycling of substance and experience. Life is never stuck or static or stale, for each moment is ever-new and fresh. Every ending is a new point of beginning. -- Louise L. Hay--- My love to all of you...... Andrea

  • 05/25/2021

    Kim, Rich, Andrew, Joe Joe, Amanda and family, There are no words that could possibly comfort you at this difficult time or express our heartfelt sorrow. Please know that you have been in our thoughts and prayers daily. Matt was a sweetheart and it was always fun watching all of our boys play their sports together through the years. Matt always had a bright smile and a friendly hello. Our hearts ache for your tragic loss. Angela, Bob, Sarah, Shane, Chelsea, Carleigh, and Zachary Murphy
