He attended school in Lanesboro and graduated from Lanesboro High School in 2003. He worked as an Agriculture Technician for Benson Farm Service of Lewiston. Matt was a loving person who brought a smile to everyone's face. He enjoyed spending time with family and friends, reading, fishing, hunting, and anything that could involve fun. He also enjoyed working in the agriculture industry and was pleased to have recently moved closer to home. Matthew was greatly loved and will be missed by all who knew him.

Visitation will take place from 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM on Thursday at the church. Burial will follow the service at Pilot Mound Cemetery in rural Chatfield.
The family prefers memorials to Pilot Mound Lutheran Cemetery, Bruce's Legacy (search, rescue, and recovery volunteer organization), or your local search, rescue, and recovery organization.
"He cared how people felt, not what they thought."
