The Virtual Memorial Garden

Matthew or as many friends knew him by Marty, Dekkronn or Snowcrash was one of my best friends who was tragically killed in a motor bike accident. Matthew loved life and was a wonderful person. I will always remember him, as an ambitious, courageous and energetic person who knew what he wanted and was going to get it. Death doesn't make sense when such a fantastic person who is just reaching the prime of his life is taken away. Why couldn't it have been someone else? Why him? But as Marty would say "that's life"

I will remember him best out the back in good old Pizza Hut - the food fights, locking each other in the freezer and of course going out in his purple torana and his love of bikes... Everytime I hear a bike, for that first instant I think it is him - then remember he has gone. I think that sound of a bike will haunt me forever.

You died before you time was up,
you were taken from us in the middle of the night,
I will never forget you and what a special person you where,
you know that I have always loved you,
all these years but I never told you in such simple words,
I always thought that we would end up growing old together
I was wrong,
I wish I got to say goodbye,
Rest in peace dear friend
Love you always - Natalie
