Offering up the family rosary for the man of few words.

His passing seemed sudden and unexpected.  I have a recollection that he had mentioned some chronic health issues which prevented him from working full time, if I am remembering correctly, and another post in the thread mentioned a heart condition.

A post in this thread from another member described him well I think:

No matter what forum drama was going on, he always remained even-tempered.

I'm looking at his profile.  That reputation score says something in itself: Reputation:+3833/-398


I would expand upon Sean Johnson's excellent idea of having Matthew contact whoever alerted him about Matto and have them let his family know about this thread, as they may find comfort in knowing how much he was appreciated and respected here.  Perhaps also the text of this thread could be compiled into a file (such as a pdf) and sent to the family through Matthew's contact.  This is what funeral homes do with the online guest books they typically have on their web sites.

Can we get 30 day Gregorian Masses said for him (from us)? I don't know how to arrange for it (online) or what Priest Matto would have wanted to offer Mass for him. Please feel free to PM me for any ideas.

I saw that his last post was mid-afternoon on 11/29 and then he passed away the next day.  So it would appear to have been unexpected.
Or he chose to keep it to himself.

I have a question about the obit.  He died 11/30.  Was that when the obit was posted or was it just posted..almost 2 months later?  Did the CI member explain?

If you look at the obit, he died on 11/30 and they had services for him 12/6.
