Matthew Wiley Sullivan, Jr., age 36, passed away on October 1, 2020 in Eureka, CA from injuries sustained in a traffic accident. He was riding his bike and on his way home from work when he was hit by an oncoming truck.
Matty was born to Wendy L. Manning and Matthew W. Sullivan, Sr. in January 1984 in Los Angeles, CA. Matty grew up in Visalia, CA with his mother, stepfather, brothers and sister. He had a happy childhood filled with sports, music, Madden Football, wrestling with siblings, and spending time with his friends. He also spent many happy days with his father, stepmother, brother and sister. He enjoyed all their many travels together and loved Los Angeles.
At age 20, he and Aubree (Rouch) Schletewitz welcomed their beautiful daughter Averee into the world. He adored her and she was the light in his beautiful grey/green eyes.
Throughout the good and the bad times in Matty's shortened life, he remained determined to live a life he and his family could be proud of. Matty received his AA degree in 2019, along with an Apprenticeship Certificate in Welding and Blueprint Reading. He had found a renewed sense of life and was working hard to pursue his dreams. Matty had a love and thirst for knowledge. He loved philosophy, history, poetry, music, and of course sports! He was full of life and looking forward to the future.
He is remembered by all as a man with a heart of gold, an incredible sense of humor, intelligent, charismatic, with an incredible smile that lit up the room!
