Matthew Danley Obituary

Our beloved son, Matthew Paul Danley was taken home peacefully in his sleep Friday night, January 29, 2016. Matt was born April 26, 1983. He spent early years in Austin, TX. He graduated from Colorado Springs Christian High School, and received his BA degree in Business Marketing from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs in 2009.

Matt had a passion for people and music. He loved deeply and showed compassion to all he met. His kind spirit, sense of humor, and quick smile brought joy wherever he went. His brilliant mind and creativity thrived in his work at Imperial Architectural Finishes, where he will be greatly missed.

Matt was cherished his loving family: parents Paul and Judy Danley, sister and brother-in-law Melissa and Bart Williams, grandmother Peggy Harris, as well as his aunts, uncles and cousins.

A Memorial Service will be held Saturday, February 6th, at 1:00 pm at Fellowship Bible Church, 5590 N. Nevada Ave., Colorado Springs, CO 80918. Because of Matt's heart for others, in lieu of flowers, memorials may be sent to the Children's Hope Chest (the Joel Home), P.O. Box 63842, Colorado Springs, CO 80962.
