MATTHIAS LOUX Obituary

Matthias Samuel Loux - Mattie - was born Oct. 20, 2010. He was quickly and lovingly adopted into the family of John and Tracie Loux.

Eventually he was able to reside in the Loux home, where his brilliant spirit and vibrant personality grew more and more prominent to all. Mattie went to be with the Lord on Aug. 21, 2014, during a severe asthma attack. He was preceded in death by his uncle, Derek Loux. He is survived by father, John, mother, Tracie, brother and sister-in-law, Nick and Amy, brothers, Taylor and Aiden and sisters, Isabelle, Elia and Emma.

Amazing family thank you for sharing your son with the world he was and is such a blessing and a light. There were so many days when he cheered my sad heart. Struggled with depression this past few years off and on. But seeing his bright face always gave me hope and sometimes he made me laugh! The love that you poured into him came shinning through his smiles and his eyes. You are truly blessed and have blessed many as well.

I am so sorry for your loss. I can not wait to meet him one day on Heaven. Praying for y'all

Oh precious Mattie, gift from heaven. We loved you so. You taught us so much. You grew us. We learned from you. We are still learning from you.

Precious Loux family... Tracie, John, and children... you loved him so well. He was joy, pure joy. He will be ever so missed. I cannot fathom your grief for ours is so deep.

Memory Eternal Mattie.

"Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me.
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger."

Christ was in you. You in Him.
