Matthew was born in Alston, Clarendon in Jamaica, WI and was the 15th of 16 children. Matthew emigrated to Montreal/Quebec Province, Canada and later to Queens, NY in search of opportunities for a better life. This bold decision to leave his home made an immeasurable mark on his life. His courage, work ethic, financial acumen, and love for family and friends left an indelible imprint on all that met him. Because of Matthew’s outgoing nature, he never met a stranger, and his presence will be greatly missed. Matthew is survived by his three children, Margaret, Marc-Anthony, and Kimberley and his five grandchildren Brianna, Gabrielle, Frédéric, Charles and Lucas.
A visitation of family and friends will be held for Matthew on Thursday, January 13, 2022 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Horis A. Ward Funeral Home - Fairview Chapel | 376 Fairview Road Stockbridge, Georgia 30281. A celebration of life will occur Friday, January 14, 2022 at 11:00 AM in Ward's Chapel. Services will conclude with a graveside committal on Friday, January 14, 2022 at approximately 1:00 PM in Fairview Memorial Gardens | 164 Fairview Road Stockbridge, Georgia 30281.
