Mathew Jordan Couch

Mathew “Matt” Couch, 41, of Zephyrhills, Florida, passed away on November 8, 2026, leaving his family and friends with cherished memories of his humor, lively personality, and love for his wife and son.

Born on December 1, 1984, and originally from Alexandria, Virginia, Matt made his home in Zephyrhills. He met Jessica while they were working at On The Border, beginning a love story that led to their marriage on May 21, 2016. Matt adored Jessica and loved taking her out on the town for date nights. Together, they shared their greatest joy: their son, Jackson.

Of everything Matt accomplished, nothing made him prouder than being Jackson’s dad. Taking Jackson to Tampa Bay Buccaneers games was something he especially loved—a chance to share his love of football and spend time with his son. Jessica and Jackson were at the heart of the life he worked so hard to build.

Matt brought humor and energy wherever he went. Funny and full of personality, he was the life of the party and gave those around him so many reasons to smile. He enjoyed a round of golf, cheering on his Washington Redskins, and, above all, spending time with his family.

As a District Sales Manager at Sysco Foods, Matt worked incredibly hard while remaining humble in his successes. That combination of determination and humility was an important part of who he was.

Matt is survived by his beloved wife, Jessica Couch; his treasured son, Jackson Couch; his mother, Joan Latronica; his father, David Couch; his brothers, David Couch and Daniel Couch; and his sister, Katelynn Latronica. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, David and Margaret Couch and Ruth Fullerton and Michael Callinan, and his brother, Stephen Couch.

His life was far too short, but the love he gave Jessica and Jackson, the laughter he shared, and the memories he made with family and friends will remain with them always.

The family will receive friends from 10am to 11am followed by a Funeral Service that will take place at 11am on Tuesday, November 17, 2026 at Blount and Curry Carrollwood located at 3207 W. Bearss Ave. Tampa, FL. 33618.
