Matt is survived by his loving mother, Debra; his devoted siblings, Bobbi (Aaron) Arias, Don (Lois) Linder, Steve (Rachelle) Linder, Eric (Ashley) Linder, and Nicole (Brandon) Kindelspire. He is also survived by his grandmother Georgia Null, along with aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his father, Ricky, with whom he now shares a heavenly reunion.
