Matthew Gregory Smith

Matthew is survived by his parents, Greg & Misty Smith; his sister, Amanda & Brian Latham; his nephew, Tanner Simmons; his great nephew Bodhi Blake; his stepsisters, Emmilee Smith & Caleb Smith and Amelia & Zoe Whitt; and his nieces, Reagan Jo & Magnolia Smith.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Melitia Godwin, and his grandparents, Howard & Bernice Smith.

Matthew had a big heart and never met a stranger. He was very outgoing and made friends everywhere he went. He was kind and funny… and his laugh was contagious. Matthew loved to shop and had a great sense of style, often giving fashion tips to everyone around him. He leaves behind many friends and coworkers whom he loved dearly.

A visitation will be held at Collier-Butler Funeral Home, located at 824 Rainbow Drive, Gadsden, AL 35901, on January 28, 2026, from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm, followed by a celebration of life at 2:00 pm. Matthew will be laid to rest at Hokes Bluff Cemetery.

He will be greatly missed, and we will carry his memories with us forever.
