Yesterday
Mattie,
You were always the brightest light in every room.
With a story in your pocket and a joke ready to lift our spirits, you made even the darkest days feel golden.
Your laughter was contagious, your kindness boundless—and your presence, unforgettable.
You’ll be dearly missed,
but I know you’re up there, reunited with your loved ones,
filling heaven with the same joy and laughter you gave to all of us down here.
I love you.
Until we meet again,
Tina

I first met Mattie when I started working at Mattie Sopranos. Working with him was never a dull moment. He loved to entertain and have his friends and family at his place. He was such a good guy who would help any of his friend when needed. Rest in peace my friend. God bless.
