Matt Believed in family and loved us all, he was the Best Uncle to Jaydence, Carter, Taylor, Brooklyn, Devin and Jennifer-Rose. Words can not express the Loving impact he had on each of them.
As a brother he was always very loyal, understanding, kind and loving. He was a true friend without any judgement and would always make us laugh and be there for us when we cried. He will be missed beyond words and we are so thankful for the time we had with him.
Friends were very important to Matt, he considered them his family. Brad & Laurie Tutkaluk, Johnny Reed, Denise Cook, and the many other friends Matt made throughout his life.
Matt loved so many hobbies, ice fishing
Hunting, fly fishing, Motorcycling, camping, cleaning his truck, movies and just being with family and friends.
Matt was incredibly open to life and loved adventure and new experiences.
Your life was a blessing and your memory a treasure, you are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.
You will be forever in our Hearts!♥️

Matt was such a great guy. Best friend to Adam and my daughter Sarah, he spent most of his free time with them. I saw him at their place on almost every stat holiday for the past few years, for dinner or BBQ parties in their backyard. Matt and Adam were brothers at heart. They seemed happiest when hanging out together. My condolences to Matt’s family.
