Autumn Reeder-Ellis Education Fund

As we celebrate Mattys life and mourn his passing we can remember what Matt left to this world. Matty saved 4 lives by donating his organs and will live on in more ways than one. 

Matty leaves behind his beautiful, and talented daughter. Autumn is attending the Sarah Maclaughlin School of Music, as well as being part of a gifted enrichment class at her elementary school. Autumn mirrors the many wonderful charms Matty possessed: she is incredibly smart, wise beyond her years, funny, caring, charming, intensely deep and has a gift with words . Her laugh is contagious, she can come back with a witty comment in seconds and she has a gorgeous singing voice — 

Many people have reached out to ask how they can be of support during this difficult time. We are asking that you make a donation to Autumn's Education fund for Music.

Autumn's aunt and uncle (Ben and Nina Reeder) are setting up a trust for her for her future formal and informal musical education (e.g.RESP contributions, music lessons/equipment etc).

We place no expectations on the donation amounts; give a little or give a lot. The money will never replace Matt, but it might provide for opportunities that he would have surely tried to make happen for the daughter he loved so dearly.
