Support the Pulley Family in Memory of Matt

Donation protected
On August 25, 2025, our dear friend Matt Pulley (49) passed away suddenly in Little Rock, Arkansas. He leaves behind his wife, Elizabeth, their son Tyler (a senior at Pulaski Academy), and their daughter Maddy Kate (a junior at Ouachita Baptist University).

If you knew Matt, you know why everyone loved being around him. He was genuine, devoted, humble, and fun—hilarious, in fact, truly one of the funniest people we’ve ever met. If Matt was there, you knew you were going to have a good time. He loved Jesus, and he loved Elizabeth and the kids. (And of course, he loved football too, especially Baylor football). The hole he leaves is immense, and yet even now we’re held by the hope Matt lived with and pointed us to. This fundraiser is a way for all of us—family, friends, teammates, classmates, colleagues, church family—to show up for Matt's family right now.

How your gift will help:
  • Immediate expenses related to services and memorial arrangements
  • Short-term living costs as the family navigates the shock and transition
  • Practical needs for the kids as they continue school and life in the months ahead
  • Unexpected costs that arise in the wake of this sudden loss

If you’d like to help in other tangible ways, a meal calendar is linked here . If you are out-of-town, there is a way to give food delivery gift cards. Your prayers, messages, and sharing this page are also a real gift.

Thank you for loving the Pulley family. We grieve, but we do so with hope, trusting that the same faithful God Matt loved will carry Elizabeth, Tyler, and Maddy Kate in the days to come.

With love and gratitude,
Friends of the Pulley family
