Passing of Matt Irvin

Former Member

Everyone,

First, I will apologize in advance if this is in the wrong forum or if this information has already been posted elsewhere. With sadness, I must report the passing of Matt Irvin this past Wednesday Oct. 19. While at home, Matt suffered a major heart attack and could not be revived by the paramedics. For the last several years, Matt had been going through a series of MAJOR health issues and fought a tough battle. Matt was a member of our club, The Pittsburgh Independent Hi Railers and was also a member of the TCA Fort Pitt Division Hi Railers. Whenever our club was set up with a display, Matt thoroughly enjoyed handing his Legacy remote over to the younger kids attending and let them have a go at it after a little instruction. Matt also designed several layouts that were/are being built. Just wanted to let the Forum members know about Matt's passing in case any of you knew him. He'll be missed.

Thanks,

Nick
