      Dear Flexter Family: Sincere condolences from afar. I fondly remember Matt from high school. After moving away from IL, I lost touch with him, but kept up-to-date on him through his brother, George. Rest in healthy peace, Matt. You’ll never be forgotten. 🤘🏼Love, ~Celia~

      I am so very sorry to hear about Matt. Since I’ve been away so many have passed away that I have already missed. Matt is one I will really miss.

      Dear George, Dana, Mike & Teri….. & families,
      I am so very sorry to learn of Matts passing. I was very shocked.
      He was way to young! One year younger than me.
      Just a baby.
      I always found Matt to be quite the funny guy.
      Such a talker. Never could get a word in. 😉
      Prayers for you all.
      Matt was a good guy.
      Thinking of you all!
      Karl & Kristy (Woomer) Kramer

      I had just seen Matt at Walmart a few months ago since moving back to Clay City. He came up and spoke to me telling me an old school story. We laughed at an old memory. So sorry for your lost. Thoughts and prayers for his family n friends. 🙏
