Celebration of Matthew Tipler

Donation protected

It breaks my heart to no end,..... words are not enough to express the emotions right now. It is with the most painful and greatest regret to say, however, February 28 2020, Matthew Tipler took his own life. I can't begin to express right now the heart ache, pain and shock his family is going though. We lost yet another truly remarkable and amazing person. And we are all aching and broken. 

Matt was many things. He was a man of dedication, love, and strength.  Adventure, thrill and excitement. He was never one to back down from a challenge. And  he had the kindest heart,  any one could ever ask for. Matt would do anything for you. When he befriended you, you became family. He would break his back for you. He was courageous, skilled, hard working and genuine. He would always try to make time for you. Special events, little events, just to hang out and get fresh air. New places, old places, he was always up for anything, as long as who he was with was happy. 
He was also struggling...so much, in ways, words literally cannot draw an understanding of his struggles. Let us remember him for who he really  Was and not who he thought he was. He was Amazing. He was Remarkable. He was Loving. He was Mad. He was Fearless. But, above all,
He was Matthew Fucking Tipler.  

Matt had touched all of our lives in one way or another, on more than one occasion. That was just who he was. If you had the chance to receive his love, kindness and the goodness from his huge heart, you truly understand what we lost. He never asked for really much in return. Just a thanks, maybe some food and just quality time. Let us give back and take care of him and his family. Let us prove what he really meant to us. Let us do what we can to lift him and his family up in praise, honor and memory.

We miss you so much Matt, fuck, I am sorry, this is so hard. We love you even more than than words can describe we really hope you knew that. You touched so many of our lives. I can't believe this is even real. 

I am asking, brothers, sisters, and friends, let us please come together in this time of need for Mary and Aaron and their family. Let us fill their buckets with love, comfort, and security. Let us shower them and take care of them so they all may heal and process properly without worry. 

I would like us to create a support blanket for all of the Tiplers Family. I want us to come together and show Matty how much he Really was loved and how much he is already missed. Let us come together and give what we can. Cremation, burial, whatever his last wish was, let us create it. I would also like to raise enough funds for the rest of the family for counseling, coping, bills and being able to take as much time off as needed through this beyond imaginably difficult time, without a single worry of money. 

To Honor the life of Matthew Tipler, there will be a Celebration of Life. However, that is still being determined and will be let known once decided. 

Please be respectful during this time of mourning of our Brother, our Friend. A Son, a Grandson, a Nephew and Cousin. Hold each other up.  Hold each other close and keep Mary, Aaron and their family in your thoughts, prayers, vibes, and hearts.
