Final Expenses for the Passing of Chris Matthews
On June 18th, 2021 James “Sparky” Chris Matthews passed away from blood loss during surgery after a years-long battle with diabetes. He was a detective for 29 years for JPSO and was well loved by his fellow peers and family. Chris had undergone many surgeries and amputations to control the gangrene but sadly passed away. He first lost his right leg in 2019 due to Charcot foot. After this, he was diagnosed legally blind and went into end stage renal kidney failure. His vascular system had been depleted. We really need help funding the funeral services as our funds have been drained by his many treatments. This passing was unexpected and we need as much help as possible to fund the funeral.
