On August 4th, Mathew Fredericks was killed in a car crash in New Berlin, NY. The driver of the other vehicle crossed over the  yellow line and hit Mathew head on. Mathew leaves behind the most important important things in the world to him - his children Kayleigh and Dante Fredericks. In lieu of food or flowers, monetary donations to honor Mathew will be split and put into trusts for Dante and Kayleigh. Dante will receive his upon turning 18. 

Mathew was the most kind, gentle soul with a passion for life. He cared about all of those around him. Mathew "worked  hard and played hard" every moment of his life. His absence will leave a great whole in the hearts of all who knew him. His impact on those around him was limitless.
