Matthew is also survived by his sister, Misty Brasko; his brother, Stephen Brasko III; his mother, Kelley Brasko; and his father, Stephen Brasko Jr. Family takes comfort in knowing that Matthew is now reunited in spirit with his brothers, Timothy and Zachary.

Matthew was known for his quick wit, kind heart, and remarkable ability to fix or build almost anything. He had a loud, boisterous laugh that could fill a room and lift the spirits of those around him. Friends and family often remembered him bringing humor and joy to everyday moments, whether through tackling a household project, sharing a story that made everyone laugh, or cheering passionately for the Cleveland Browns.
