Matt was the funniest, most loving guy we all knew, he loved fishing with his family and friends. He spent many hours playing video games with his dad and his son. Matt loved NASCAR, watching races on tv and attending races with his father. Matt enjoyed collecting firearms and going shooting with Kevin, AKA Cupcake. He loved wrestling with his kids, nieces, nephews and Cupcake. He enjoyed playing and sledding in the snow with his children and family. He loved to relax with a Corona and a shot of Patron, actually many. He enjoyed tearing up the dance floor, or at least trying at weddings, birthdays and parties. He was a loyal fan of The, Ohio State University Buckeyes. He was a family man who deeply enjoyed all things with his family, and extended family. He was loved by anyone that knew him and will be deeply missed by everyone whose life he touched.
