Jeffrey Matey Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Waite Funeral Home Medina on Mar. 10, 2025.
Jeffrey Lynn Matey, age 70, passed away on March 8, 2025, peacefully in Medina, Ohio. He was born in Cleveland, Ohio on September 8, 1954, to the late Joseph A. and Edna C. (Coupe) Matey.
Jeff retired after 34 years with C. Martin Trucking as a truck driver. He was an avid supporter of all Cleveland Sports teams; he unwaveringly supported them through years of thick and thin. He especially loved watching the Cleveland Browns and tried never to miss a game.
Jeff loved spending time with his family and friends. He especially loved hosting parties and family get togethers at his apartment. He will always be remembered for his love of Karaoke and his unforgettable rendition of 'Ain't No Stopping Us Now'.
Jeff is survived by his sister, Nancy J. (Robert) Pfaff; nieces, Diane N. Pfaff of Cambridge, OH and Yani J. Pfaff of Medina, OH; nephew, Rob D. Pfaff of North Royalton, OH; and many dear friends and colleagues.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Joseph and Edna (Coupe) Matey.
