January 8, 1998

I am sad to say on January 8, 1998 my son Mathew passed away. I can't bring myself to take down this webpage or change anything so it is left here for now, in his memory. His lifelong fight has ended and I miss him terribly.

The following is a poem I received from his 8th grade A&E Math Class...

God looked around his garden
and He found an empty place,
He then looked down upon his earth
and saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
and lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He always takes the best.

He Knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never
get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough
and the hills so hard to climb.
So he closed your weary eyelids
and said "Peace be thine".

It broke our hearts to lose you
but you didn't go alone.
For a part of us went with you
the day God called you home.

Mathew James Titus
July 18, 1982 - January 8, 1998
