Matthew Brown

For fifty-one years the world has been blessed with the presence of our dad, Matt Brown.

One of Matt's greatest joys is being a father. He did not know if he could father children himself, and he was fulfilled in choosing to be a dad to his oldest daughters Scarlet and Bailey. Upon learning of his son Cobey's impending arrival, he said, "I hope this is real". It WAS real and was real again with the birth of his youngest daughter and the one who completed the family, Birdie. Matt also has the privilege of being a proud papa to his grandchildren Bruce and Alice.

Matt is loved by many. In addition to being a beloved son, brother, nephew, and uncle, he has a large number of friends who he also considers family, including: his Forever Friends singing group; his bandmates of Elijah's Ride; friends from MetLife, Lawn America, and Asplundh Tree Expert Co; and others of whom we are unaware. We certainly know they exist.

We know love endures forever; therefore, we know our dad's love for us continues without end, as ours does for him. MATT LOVES AND HE IS LOVED.
