Dear Curtis Family
Rohan & I are so saddened to hear of the passing of our dear friend, Matthew. There are no words that can truly express how sorry we are for your loss.
We have such wonderful memories of the year’s in Melbourne while studying & living in shared housing with Matthew. They were filled with laughter, adventures and the kind of friendship never leaves your memories. Matthew was someone who was always positive, made you laugh, enjoyed a good time & would do anything for you.
One of the greatest honors was having Matthew stand with us as part of our wedding party. It meant so much to us then & this year we have been married 25 years. Looking back at our photographs reminds me not only of a special day, but of a truly special friend.
Please know that Matthew will be remembered with great affection and gratitude. His friendship enriched our lives and we are blessed to have known him.
Our heartfelt thoughts are with you during this incredibly difficult time.
Matthew you were always missed, much loved & are forever our dear friend.
Much love, Rohan & Rachael, Hayden, Jade, Amber, Darcy & Austin Lucas. xxxxxxx
