Sorry to hear that. He was a good guy.

I don't think he was elderly, did he have an accident or illness?

Oh no, I am terribly sorry to hear this. Matt was an excellent contributor here and a terrific support person for Metrix. I always enjoyed working with him. He was smart, kind and empathetic. He was one of the rare, good ones.

He posted a while back, I think it was on Twitter, that he had brain cancer and was going to fight it. I think I remembered this right. Sad for sure.

 

[Joe]

Yes about a year ago he was diagnosed with brain cancer. He did radiation and chemo and I believe he had surgery as well.

Matt was truly an outspoken member of our community - always making things better. Cancer strikes again - taking someone too soon from too many. Rest In Peace Matt!
