    Matt is absolutely THE BEST. Incredibly knowledgeable, generous, kind, and a great friend. They don't come any better than Matt Newsome. He more than deserves the honor/honour (or however you spell it!). Three cheers for Matt!

    Very, very well deserved!!
    For years, I've been in awe of Matt and his wealth of knowledge.
    Meeting him for the first time at Ellis Island for the Tartan Week events, I was overwhelmed by his kindness, warmth and helpfulness. Matt is an amazing scholar on tartans and a really, really nice person as well.
    Sincere congratulations, Matt !!
