Matthew was a light to work with. Always willing to do his best for his patients and coworkers. We are all so sorry for your loss.

- Tripoint CCU , Painesville, OH

I had the pleasure of working with Matthew for the last several weeks. He was always so willing to help and was a truly caring and compassionate individual. On many occasions we had intriguing conversations about the unknown such as aliens and bigfoot. We talked about dinosaurs and mass extinction. More recently we talked about cats and he shared with me that he was planning on getting a bengal. Our conversations were always so enjoyable. Matthew was a fountain of knowledge and I would often find him looking up different research articles and then sharing that knowledge with me. I am glad that I had the opportunity to get to know Matthew. He will be missed by many. My sincerest condolences go out to his loved ones.

Matthew was a terrific guy and a wonderful friend. He was one of the best of us 'ol BC guys from the class of 2000! He traveled to visit me when I was living in different areas of the Southeast. We went to many concerts together and I have many great memories of Matthew: camping with him in Antioch, TN to see my first Phish show and selling grilled cheese sandwiches on the lot. I remember great conversations with him on the phone and over a beer. When he was in the military and was overseas he would write to his friends and one of my favorite correspondences from him was on a Britney Spears postcard he found in one of The Hussein family palaces. I will miss his easy going nature and his kind spirit. I will miss his laugh. I hope that he has found peace. I hope that his family will take comfort in seeing all the lives that he has touched.

Matt and I went to nursing school together in Savannah. He was always so pleasant to have in class. Although quiet and reserved most of the time, he always had a friendly smile and offered help if you had a question. I remember when we learned about travel nursing in school how we both thought it would be such an awesome experience getting to travel doing something we liked doing. I’m proud to call him a classmate, colleague, and a friend and sorry to hear of his passing. My condolences to all his family and loved ones.

- Melissa Delgado, Roseville, CA

I had the sincere pleasure of having Matthew as a classmate and friend during nursing school. He was a kind and compassionate soul. His warm smile and quick wit made him a joy to be around. In his years of nursing since then I know he has helped so many. Praying for peace for all his family and friends. Rest in Peace, sweet Matthew. Too soon gone.

My heart is sadden at the loss of Matt. I had the opportunity to work with him on his travel assignment in Beaufort where he stayed a year. He was so easy going and a pleasure to work with; and became part of the team quickly. He even volunteered to be in the raft race with us! His bedside care was gentle and frequently visited with patients that he had cared for, but not necessarily assigned to for the day. Matt was the team member that you wanted to be working with because he was always there to help and he was a strong, confident nurse. Blessings to his family. Matt will definitely be missed and nursing has lost a comrade in arms!

- Marla Slock, Hardeeville , SC

My thoughts and prayers are with the Wallden family.

I was deeply saddened to find out about Matthew’s passing. My prayers are with his family. I hired Matthew as a nurse at our facility in Littleton and when he left we always stayed in touch with each other. I realized I hadn’t heard from him in a while and found this site for him. He was great person with a great and funny personality. He is missed!
