It was a privilege to be friends with someone who was so engaged with so many aspects of life - and whether he was talking about REM, wrestling, family, The Simpsons, scammers, work or politics, Matt approached every subject with enthusiasm and sincerity, as well as being blunt and hilarious. He was the master of the creative insult, but he saved them for the politicians and bands who deserved them - he had such warmth for those he was close to in life. My thoughts are with everyone Matt leaves behind.

All my love and thoughts to you and your family. A true character. Opinionated but fair. Passionate. With a voice that conjured so many memories. Rest well, Moj.

Enormous love, Matthew. A childhood friend who, whilst I haven't spoken to in many years, I still think of fondly. Lots of good evenings spent together gaming and reading. A good man taken too soon.

Gail, Amy and Christopher; my heart goes out to you all. Sincere condolences.

Lots of love, Kris James-Gillum & family x
