With great sadness we have learned that our long time Club member, Mat Horrigan, passed away on 1/31/2021 after a long battle with multiple myeloma. Mat is survived by his wife Karen, son Graham, and daughter Paige. Both Graham and Paige grew up as Otters and have their names in many places on the record board. You could always find Mat at the dual meet, conference meet, and county meet cheering for his children, volunteering, and hanging out with other WHO parents. We will all miss him dearly for all the conversations and laughter we shared on deck. Personally, Art Laforteza and I were dressed up as the Three Amigos with Mat one year at Walnut Heights school auction, a memory I will forever cherish.
If you are able to help Karen, Graham, and Paige during this difficult time, friends and neighbors have established several options that would be greatly appreciated:

Dear Friends and Neighbors of the Horrigan Family,
We would all like to support Karen, Graham and Paige Horrigan after the recent loss of their loving husband, father, and dear friend to all of us, Mat. After talking with Karen. two services should take a huge burden off of the family. Housekeeping and landscaping services have been set up starting this week and will continue all of 2021.
If you are able and are so inclined, please Venmo your donation (any amount will be quite helpful and very much appreciated) to help cover the costs for these two services for the year for the Horrigan Family.
