Mathew  Talacko

Mathew Anthony Talacko

Kind, handsome, smart, family, loving

Mathew is spelled with one T. He was 6’5” tall and gave the best bear hugs ever! He was kind, smart, on the honor roll for straight A’s every semester of school. He went to Tuscany to attend culinary school and graduated with honors. He was a high functioning addict. He was so good at helping and talking to other people with a drug problem but couldn’t help himself unfortunately. I miss him every day and I love him so much. I wish I could ask God for another chance, but I know it doesn’t work that way. We love you baby :(
