It's hard to believe that Matt is no longer here with us. When I think of Garten cousins, Paula, Matt & Jane were always a package deal. Growing up in the '60s, '70s & '80s in Virginia, our families often got together for long weekends and holidays. I remember so clearly all three siblings jumping out of their car and running up the hill to our house, the girls in the front and Matt bringing up the rear, always holding a toy car or gadget in his hand. Matt was outnumbered by the girls, five of us Garten girls versus one of him. My brothers were 9 & 10 years older than Matt and had already started at VMI when Matt was in elementary school. So Matt tolerated being around the 5 Virginia Garten girls and laughed along with all our silliness. He always had an easy-going personality and good sense of humor and was fun to be around.
Tides and tables turned, however, whenever our big, extended Garten clan would get together for summer family vacations in Boston, Lexington & the Cape. Matt was in good company with all his male cousins who then outnumbered the girls. He was an integral member of the younger Garten boy cousins entourage, sharing many pranks, stories, and escapades with them, even up to adulthood. Simple games of Bingo or Pokeno brought out good, old-fashioned Irish fun and great laughter by all late into the night and Matt was right at home during these times.
These are but a few of the many good memories I have of my cousin Matt. I hope that his family holds similar memories of their own close to their hearts. We were all lucky to have had Matt in our lives. Special thoughts, love and hugs to Paula and Jane for always looking out for their brother. May he rest in peace.
Love,
(Cousin) Eileen Garten Cantrell

Matt was a wonderful brother, son and uncle. From when we were little, I always felt protective of him -- whether it was shielding him from a neighborhood dog when we were very young to the present day -- I worried about him as a big sister will. He was a gentle soul. He was always there when I needed him. Matt loved a party and could be counted on to attend every family event he could -- even traveling twice to the U.S. from Australia for his sisters' weddings which were six months apart when he was stationed there with the Navy. He was funny, smart, generous and kind. He will be so missed by us all.

Matt was such a dear, sweet soul and held a special place in the hearts of our family. Paula and I miss him so very much and feel his loss deeply. I will always remember his dry sense of humor, quick and smart wit, and unique personality. He was a very supportive big brother who was always willing to help. I have many great memories of Matt over the years – to many to include here – but many involved visiting him at VMI. Matt, may you be surrounded by love and kindness. May you be happy and at peace. Your loving sister, Jane XO

Matt was a fantastic, one of a kind cousin. He was like another brother to me. I will miss him dearly and will think of him often. His sense of humor would always lift me up and I will remember those times forever.
Fair Winds and Following Seas Brother!
