Heather, I’m so sorry to hear about this. I didn’t know your dad well, but I remember him helping me and my fellow Art School class to find a space downtown for our grad exhibition. He didnt have to do that but he was obviously helpful and selfless. I’m really sorry for your loss.

So sorry to hear of Matt’s passing. I joined the London-St.Thomas Real Estate Board in 1974 and have been privileged to know Matt for 40 years! He was a man with a strong work ethic who was respected by his peers, and I always enjoyed his wonderful sense of humor. My thoughts are with you at this time of sadness.
I shall always remember that glint in his eye, that wit and temperament! A fine man and realtor. Pleasure to have worked with him through many, many decades. A gentle soul.
Matt always had a quick wit and hearty laugh around the office. He was well respected in the real estate industry and a very kind man. He will be greatly missed. My heartfelt sympathy is with his family during this very sad time. Lorie Johnson, RLPT
Andrew and Kandra, Heather and Nathan,
Please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of your father Matt. Having grown up in London’s vibrant Scottish expat community it was always a pleasure to meet Matt at the various social and soccer events. He was a true gentleman and for the past number of years a close friend of my mother Anna Findlater , they enjoyed each others company very much. May you reflect fondly on his time with you and always cherish the memories of his love .
With deepest sympathy,
Iain and Barb Findlater,

So saddened to hear this news. Matt was larger than life, a bright spot in my day whenever we met. My condolences to his family.

Heather and Andrew,
I only had the opportunity to meet Matt a couple of times, but that was all that was necessary to know the kind of gentle soul he was; I could tell this especially how he made my gran smile and the great times they had laughing and watching the tele. My condolences on his passing; may you, your family, and friends come together in celebration of his life and the happiness that he naturally instilled in others when in their presence. May only these joyous memories live on as he is remembered.
Heather and Andrew
Everyone in our office loved your Dad so we share your sorrow deeply. He brought joy and laughter with his wicked sense of humour. A fine agent but even more important a fine human being. We will all miss him terribly.
I had the great pleasure and honor of working with Matt for 12 years and seeing him around the office almost everyday. His cheerful and humorous nature will be greatly missed everyday! Rest in peace Matt.
Andrew & Heather, I was so sorry to hear of your dads passing. May the comfort of friends and family be your strength now and in the days ahead. Uncle Matt will be remembered fondly.
