Matt was a 2014 graduate of Huntington North High School. He worked for Laborers’ International Union Local 213 in Fort Wayne. Matt was a vibrant personality who lit up every room he walked into. His outgoing, charismatic, and friendly personality brought him countless friendships.
Matt brought joy and laughter to everyone around him. He had a gift of making people feel seen, heard, and valued and his friendships were something he treasured deeply.
