Matt Gysel, long time team and family member passed away today. He was 39 years old, and was a very pleasant person to be with. Matt never missed a single one of my races, and when my father was racing he seldom missed any.
We never had a bad time with Matt. He would always bring some cheer and joy to the track, and to the shop when things were getting frustrating. I've personally known Matt since I can remember, and in all my 15 years, I've never met a person like him with a well rounded personality.
Matt will be loved and missed by all that knew him, for he had a piece of everyone's heart.
