On July 19, 2026, our family received the heartbreaking news that Matthew Thomas unexpectedly passed away at the age of 38. We are devastated by the loss of a beloved son, brother, father and friend. There are truly no words to express the pain and grief our family is feeling.

Matthew leaves behind his four beautiful daughters: Riley (13), Macie (12), Avery (10), and Willow (3). Being a father was the most important role in his life. His girls were his entire world, and he was the true definition of a girl dad. Wherever you saw Matthew, you usually saw one of his daughters right beside him. He cherished every moment with them and made sure they always knew how loved they were.

Matthew may not have had much, but everything he did have, he gave to his girls. His love, time, and devotion were the greatest gifts he could give them. His life was taken far too soon, leaving behind four daughters who will now have to navigate life without their father by their side.

We are creating this GoFundMe to help support Riley, Macie, Avery, and Willow as they grow and to help provide for their future needs. Any amount of support, no matter how small, is deeply appreciated and will make a meaningful difference for his girls.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and for keeping Matthew and his daughters in your thoughts during this incredibly difficult time.
