Dawn Parks - My deepest condolences go out to the Terrell family during their time or sorrow. I want you to know you weren't just some family whose kids I took care of, I considered you family. To Matt: the sorrow I feel over the loss of you is insurmountable. There's a hole in my heart that can never be filled, but I'm thankful for the wonderful memories of you that I will have forever. You were like a son to me, I took care of you and watched you grow from a little kid in diapers to the wonderful young man you became. You were loved by many and you will be missed by many. I will not say goodbye because we will see each other again some day. So until then R.I.P. my "little bear", you will NEVER be forgotten. I love you and miss you very much! Dawn Parks

Judy Chandler - I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your son Kris. I have heard many great things about Matt. You may not remember me (Frank's ex) but you are in my prayers. This is something that no parent should ever experience.

Gordon Upchurch & Family - Matt was a VERY respectful kid at school and We are Very Sorry For Your Lost. One of the hardest things about the death of a child is trying to figure out a reason for it. It just doesn't make sense, parents should not outlive their children. With any death, the key to offering words of sympathy is to not give explanations or solutions for grief. Your Family is In Our Prayers.
