“His industry insights, knowledge and experience were highly regarded by all customers during his many years in the industry.  Matt will be remembered as a consummate gentleman by those that had the pleasure of working with him. Matt will also be remembered for his love of his family, the automotive industry, music, and kart racing. He will be deeply missed by all. Please keep Matt and his family in your thoughts and prayers,” said Gary DelGreco, vice president of traditional sales.
