He was my uncle, one of the best uncles I could ever ask for. He was always there when I needed him. We were unstoppable, we were trouble. We created so many memories with each other, some of the best ones too. I grew up with him, he would always play with my toys with me, let me paint his nails, everything. Last summer him and I would go for drives, go swimming, anything. He taught me how to drive, how to do donuts, taught me how to live life. He always made sure I was ok. He always made sure I ate, slept, and that I was happy. Him and I would talk about my future, my wedding, when I was going to move down with him when I'm older. My first car, first house, first kid. He hated the fact that I'm growing up, but also loved it. He supported everything I did. He made sure that he was the person I could go to if I had any problems. He would always help me choose my outfits, shoes, anything really. I believe he saw me as a daughter, or that's what it looked like to me. He was so overprotective of me it was annoying but I loved it deep down. Anything I did he always told me that he was proud of me and have me talk about it. Whenever I was feeling down, he would try his best to make me laugh and smile again. This summer, him and I were supposed to do so many things together, we were planning it about a year ago, that's how excited we were. Him and I were supposed to drive together, go to beaches, goof off in stores, go swimming, anything we could do. Him and I were a team. He always told me he was superman, and that he was going to live forever or a long time at least. All though some people think he was a bad person for "things" he did, he wasn't, people just thought the worst of him and made assumptions about him that weren't true. He was doing his best in life. His best was amazing too. He was always making people laugh, smile, making sure they had someone to talk to when they were going through something even if he had his own problems. He would always find a way to make time for other people. I'm disappointed of the people who didn't apologize to him before his passing. Even though we didn't know it was going to happen, they still knew they were wrong about it. He was everything to me. I'll forever remember him as a soldier, a hero, superman, and a great person in general. I'll forever love him. And I'll never forget the memories we've created with each other the good or the bad, I'll still love and cherish every memory we have together. I love you Uncle Matt, I'm happy you're finally at peace.
