Matt is preceded in death by his Mamaw Kathleen Mulkey, his aunt Connie Hannah and his cousin Amee Young.

Matthew had this way about him that would light up a room when he would walk in. To know Matthew was to love Matthew. He had a way of making people smile just with his presence. Matthew had a passion for fishing, but even more than that he had a passion for those he cared about. Once you were loved by Matthew, you were loved for eternity. He lived life at full speed since he was a child, and that continued on into adulthood. His greatest pleasure in this life was being with his children. They were his entire world. His second greatest pleasure was photography, having graduated from First Institute with a degree in digital photography, that love carried on and aided in him having several photos published and shown in the local downtown gallery.
