We didn't know Matthew too well, more just in passing as fellow FD's. But whenever I did see him, he was always so very cheerful and polite and so it was very sad to hear the tragic news and still I cant believe it. So with a heavy heart we pass on to Matthew's family our most sincere condolences and are only too pleased to be able to make a small donation in Matthew's name.
