He went on to own and operate his own landscaping business, and worked as a groundskeeper for the Roxbury School System, until his retirement in 2012. He loved motorcycles, hunting, and fishing.
Predeceased by his parents, Matthew is survived by his wife, Elaine M. (Perfetti) Morrow; his brother, William Morrow (Judy); and his many beloved nieces and nephews.
