To honor the father of the groom

As Michelle and David begin this next chapter of their life, they are thrilled to share it with their closest family and friends.

As part of the celebration, they wish to honor and remember David’s father who passed away in 2021 from complications that come with being a lifelong diabetic.

Though he can’t be with us physically, he will be with us in spirit.

My father blessed me with a truly great life and passed on the traits of compassion, empathy, kindness, and love. He always put family first, and his legacy continues on through his children and grand children.

In lieu of a gift, we thought it fitting to provide a GoFundMe in his name to support those who continue the battle against this devastating disease day in and day out.

Thank you all so much for your kindness and support through the times of struggle and loss. We look forward to sharing the joy and love that comes with this wedding, and we know that Dad will be there in spirit.

In Memory of Matt Thalman (1955-2021)
