After finishing high school, Matt did a carpentry course at trade school, subsequently travelling to Alberta for work. After a short duration of working in Alberta, Matt returned home, later moving to Ontario where he worked as a cabinet builder. Upon his return from Ontario, Matt commenced work with a survey crew, working on the highways. This job led to Matt’s permanent employment of 24 years with the Department of Highways. He spent most of those years working out of the Plum Point and Flower’s Cove depots. During his time in the Straits, Matt lived with his sister Ruby, brother in law Jacob and their family.

One of Matthew’s loves was working in his workshop, creating a variety of wood crafted items. He was always ready to lend a hand to those who required help or wanted items made. Matt loved all types of tools, in fact his workshop is overfilled with tools that were never opened. Matt was a very quiet and unassuming man, often seen on a warm summer’s day, sitting on the bench by his workshop and looking out at the neighborhood activities.

Shortly after his retirement, in 2020, Mathew was diagnosed with Cancer and succumbed to the disease. Matt will be missed by his family, friends, and coworkers.
