The world lost a bright star yesterday. My name's Matthew, recently I was told about one of the closest and dearest friends of mine had been in a tragic motorcycle accident. He passed away February 20th in California. I am trying to help his family with atleast one less thing off their plate. He was one of the most outgoing, happiest and positive people I've ever had the privilege to have as a friend. He was more then just a friend, he was the God parent of my kids if something were to ever unfortunately happen to me and my wife. He was a passionate about his family, my kids, and his friends. I'm making this to hopefully rally some funds for his parents in this devastating time. Anything will be greatly appreciated and I truly thank you for the bottom of my heart. I don't know the cost of a funeral, let alone the expenses of transporting him back to Tucson to be home. I'm not even there now and I'm trying to get back. If you have it and can spare it. I wish everyone could of had the chance to meet him.
