About Matty Frankel
If you had the privilege of knowing Matt during his brief 21 years of life, you would have undoubtedly recognized several distinctive qualities about him. One of his most prominent traits was his caring and loving nature, which he was never hesitant to express. If he witnessed someone being treated unfairly, he would not hesitate to stand up for them. He loved a gathering, could be friends or family, either way he loved to be a part of it.
Although he appreciated all sports, lacrosse was his passion. Just as he defended those in need, he defended his team’s goal on the lacrosse field. He was an excellent team player and mentor, even serving as an informal assistant coach for the Saint Rose Men’s Lacrosse team. Matt was an incredibly driven and determined individual. He approached every task with a sense of purpose and worked tirelessly to achieve his goals. His commitment to success was evident in his academic achievements.
Matt’s unforgettable laughter and smile were two of his most enduring characteristics, leaving a lasting impression on everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. If you close your eyes and think of Matt these are the two things that will most definitely be etched in your mind.
