Matthew Moritz Obituary

Matthew J. Moritz, of Bloomington, IL passed away unexpectedly at the age of 40. He was born to Brian & Raedean Moritz. Matthew was a very dedicated hard worker. In his spare time he enjoyed spending time with his family. He was a diehard Philadelphia Eagles fan and loved grilling, rain or shine. He enjoyed playing golf and was looking forward to nicer weather to show off his skills but most likely to chase down lost balls. His love for riding his motorcycle and being outdoors was his passion. You could always find him rocking out to some good music while enjoying his love for shooting pool. He was skilled and out played many that dared him to play. His outgoing and silly personality brought laughter to everyone that met him. To know him was to love him. He will be deeply missed by many.

Matthew is survived by his son Malachi Moritz, mother Raedean Moritz; sister Ashley (Todd) Pinney; nephews Kolton & Dillon; loving and caring aunts and uncles and many cousins. He was preceded in death by his father and best friend Brian Moritz. We find comfort that they are together.
