Matt owned and operated Ozark Sanitizing Service, a company he proudly started 3 years ago. He loved hunting, fishing and camping.
Matt adored his family. He was happily married to the love of his life, Victoria, since June 27, 2015 and they became a perfectly blended, loving family. He was his parents’ beloved “Bo” and favorite Uncle Bo to his niece and nephews. Matthew was a hard worker; a good dad and husband and he was happy and full of life. He was crazy about his dog, Molly; she was always by his side. He loved to pester and could always be counted on to be funny. He was very generous and tried to help those in need when he was able, especially kids. He had a tender heart for the care and well-being of kids. He loved BIG and he will be greatly missed by all who knew and him.
