    Matthew's love & talent for music was one of a kind. That was definitely something we both deeply had in common. He had a beautiful signing voice that would make anyone, including myself, wish they had his vocal talent. I will forever cherish, envision & hold close to my heart the memories when he sang to me: "All of Me" by John Legend. And the songs we'd sang together while going places in his car. I had heard one of those songs today and being in heaven now, he knows which one I'm talking about & all I could envision was his happy, smiling face while the both of us were singing. We may have not known each other for a very long time, but we knew alot personally about each other in the amount of time in which we dated. I just wanted to share that memory as I realized that I didn't before. We had been through a lot and I wouldn't trade my time that I had spent with him for anything else in the world. We met for a reason and only God knows why. I loved you very much Matthew, and you'll forever be missed & will remain in my prayers along with your family.

    Matthew and I dated for awhile last year. He treated me so well, had a great personality, very outgoing and we did share alot of laughs and great times together. I'd do anything for him as he'd do the same for me. I loved him so much and will definitely miss his beautiful smile. Even after we broke up, we still talked every now and then, and I always continued to pray for him. Steve I'm very sorry for your loss. I know you just always wanted the best for him. I will be praying for you and your family during this difficult time. With my deepest condolences. Matthew will surely be missed.

    I and Matt worked together for a company in S.Florida, we had a lot of laughs and joking around,he was a good man
    with a great sense of humor. After he moved to central Florida we spoke on a phone as how is everything going, etc...
    I recently found out of his passing and was very upset about it and did not expect it at all. RIP

    Love and miss u Matthew. Your amazing smile and sarcastic wit always made my day. I knew you 16 years and I wanted to know you another 50 years you made me laugh and smile always. Noone got close to you like I did and we laughed together and smiled together. Your Dad is an amazing man and I am glad I got to know him I just wish it was not under these circumstances. I will cherish that stack of CD's you made me and John Secada Just Another Day Without You as we both loved will now have a new meaning in my life for you Matthew as I will now be missing you always. Robin.

    Matthew Wolf was in my life for 16 years we dated and remained very close friends afterwards. I loved him so very very much and even until he moved away to be near his dad we we always always talked and laughed together. He was very outgoing but yet he never got too close to too many people I was probably the only person constant and very close to him in his life excluding his deceased wife Monique. He definitely had some amazing qualities he was super funny at times and his love of sports and music exuded in his personality. I will always cherish the stack of Music CD's he made me as we both truly enjoyed listening to the same music and now when I hear John Secada Just Another Day without you this will always remind me of you Matt. And Fresh from Kool and The Gang because you Matt always said I looked so nice and Fresh when you saw me. My heart is broken as I loved you soooo much. Noone and I mean noone knew you the way I did Matt you did not allow anyone to truly get too close but yet I managed to be that one and only woman whom you always said you love me for who I am and you know me better than anyone. And I think your Dad is an Amazing person Matthew he only wanted the very best for you in life. You would be proud to know I got to know him but this is not how I wanted to know him, not by losing you. You said I reminded you of him and you were right. I will love and miss you Always. Robin.

    We will miss Matt's special smile and happy disposition. Matt was a lovable young man who enjoyed being with family. He was always ready to talk and was interested in what you were doing. We liked to joke with Matt and hear his laughter. We are not saying goodbye to Matt because we will always remember him and hold him in our hearts.

    Dear Steve, although we did not know Matt we know you and are sorry for your loss. “Don’t grieve for me now, I’m free. I’m following the path God laid for me. I took his hand when I heard him call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day-to laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found peace at the dawn of day. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh a kiss-Ah yes these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life has been full, I’ve savored much. Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief. Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and share with me, God wants me now, He set me FREE”Dear Steve, although we did not know Matt we know you and are sorry for your loss. “Don’t grieve for me now, I’m free.

    Kelly and Steve, Matt was always my best friend after all these years, I still remember playing behind the garage in the 80's when it rained we would race popsicle sticks all the way down from your house to Big Bend. Just know that good energies and prayers are with you. God Bless You all.

    We find comfort in having seen our Nephew, Matt, in February. He still had that charmer's smile and twinkling eyes.
    We will always fondly remember all of the family events that Matt was such a key part of.

    Kelly and Steve, I am so sorry about the loss of your brother/son. My heart aches for both of you during this difficult time. Its never easy to lose a loved one ,but its extra hard not being able to be together and share your grief with family and friends. Try to remember the good times and hold him close in your heart. May God Bless you and the entire Wolf family. "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal. Love leaves a memory no one can steal."

    Matt was my friend and Brother in Law. I always embraced him as one of my own. And now I've lost both Matthew and my sister.
    I was glad to call Matt my friend and I will miss him greatly.
    Rest in peace Matt and hit'em straight. I hear that the greens in heaven are mighty tricky.
    Adieu mon ami.

    Matt had an infectious smile and found a way to make everyone laugh. I always looked forward to family gatherings where I could see my cousins, including Matt. My family always had fun activities planned at our family reunions, and I always remember how great Matt would be at sports. I looked up to him and his love for sports. Matt, I hope you are hitting homeruns in heaven and dancing with your lovely mom. Please give grandma and grandpa a huge hug from me. Love, Amy

    I write this tribute in honor of and respect for Matthew E. Wolf. Though I have never met Matthew, I am a friend of his father of whom I have the utmost respect. I know that Matthew was a veteran, having honorably served his country with the U. S. Navy. As a veteran having served in the U. S. Military myself, I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude and respect for Matthew's dedication toward the service and defense of the freedoms and privileges that we enjoy as citizens of this great nation, our United States of America. His service and sacrifice to our country are greatly appreciated, and I wish to say thank you, Matthew E. Wolf, for your contribution to our nation. Thank you Matt, for your service to the United States Navy!
