Matthew Cox Obituary

Matthew J. Cox

Interlaken - Planet Earth has lost the most kind, generous, and beautiful soul. We are heartbroken. Matt is loved deeply by his family. He loved us generously and cherished his role as Uncle Matt to his twin nephews. We will miss him always. Matt expressed who he was in his music, his love of dogs and in helping others. He believed strongly in the fellowship of recovery. Anyone wishing to honor Matt please pass along a kind gesture, assist an animal shelter or rescue, or give your pet extra love today.There will be no calling hours or services at this time.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Matt was a sweet, kind, unbiased and helpful employee of our company for several years. His strikingly genuine nature, his honesty about himself and his intelligence were notable. His love for his mother and dogs could not be missed! My deepest sympathy for your loss.

I knew Matt through my son Jason back when their futures lay ahead of them. Matt was a bright, tender, and gifted young man, and the world is diminished by his absence. May his family and friends find solace in their good memories.
