First Annual Matthew Scarpati Memorial Walk

What do you get when you mix 30 Pi Lambda Phi's with an idea to honor a brother, who has been murdered?  The recipe for inspiration and the knowledge that while we walk the grief trail, we do not walk it alone.  Matt pledged Pi Lambda Phi over a year ago.  Four months after pledging, Matt was killed.  However, because of the brothers that Matt chose, we have received the gift of many sons.

If you ever doubt that there is goodness in the world, please call me.  I can certainly affirm that there is indeed a love of life, a dedication to making this world a better place and compassion and understanding for our fellow man.  Good people live, breathe, work, study and many attend or have graduated from the Universiy at Buffalo.  These people would not be in my life without Matt.  March 28, 2010 was a very good day.  Thank you, Beth Obad, Chapter President of MADD, Williamsville, NY, for taking the time to tell your story to the participants.  I know it resonated with all of us.
