Kevin Mattson Obituary

Passed away suddenly, at the age of 54. Loving Son of Sharon & the late Karl Mattson. Dear Brother of Mike (Mary Beth) & Kim (David) Bauman. Uncle of Sophia & Finn. Devoted dog Dad of Dude for 6yrs.

Kevin was a loyal, IBEW Local 134 Union Member for over 25yrs. He struggled with alcoholism & finally succumbed to it. We are heartbroken and we are reminded of an old Irish saying: "The man takes a drink, the drink takes a drink, the drink takes the man." Until we meet again, rest well, my Brother. All services are private.

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