And after high school I always knew he was there for me if I needed him.<BR/><BR/>He and I had some amazing adventures, or misadventures as I call them now. And Matt has given me so many stories that are inspiring/humorous/embarrassing for the both of us.<BR/><BR/>But I think his favorite adventure was being in the military. He loved being a part of it, and where it took him. And he died while on a mission that was great, heroic, and inspiring to the folks he grew up with.<BR/><BR/>~Corey Whiteman<BR/>c_whiteman@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
