Matt, David Lawrence

September 30, 1955 – January 29, 2020
In loving memory of David L Matt, 64, who passed away peacefully Wednesday, January 29, 2020 at 1:56 pm in Ia local residential home. David, a veteran of the United States Army was born and raised in Michigan, spending the last 20 plus years in Minnesota. David loved gardening and had an overabundance of vegetables during spring and summer, which he loved sharing with neighbors, friends, and coworkers.
David was an avid reader (fiction and non fiction) of the military and history genres with a little John Sandford thrown in. But most of all, David found his happiness by helping others. Most of the time without being asked and sometimes in secret. Anything from snow blowing driveways for someone who just had hip surgery to removing trash receptables from curbs after trash pickups to helping to put in new fencing. Even after getting sick himself, David still tried to do it all.
Survived by his sister Cynthia Matt, two brothers, Brian Matt, and Joseph Matt and longtime girlfriend Marcie McClure.
An informal memorial service will he held at Elsie’s in NE Minneapolis on Saturday, February 8, 2020 from 3pm-6pm.
