Matt was a much admired pilot who trained at Cornerstone Aviation and SLCC. He earned his Private Pilot license on September 19, 2014 and was a day away from his Instrument Rating check ride, when he tragically lost his life in a skiing accident at Brighton Ski Resort. He was training to become a commercial pilot.
