In loving memory

Matthew Garrigan

Angel of Hope

Being a farmer gave Matthew peace and purpose. Along with farming,Matthew also loved country music, going on road trip adventures, spending time with friends, working on and modifying his 1999 Dodge Ram, and helping others. He was the first to volunteer to help someone in need, no matter the time,
distance, or cost. He had a huge smile and an even bigger heart. Matthew's outgoing personality allowed him to never meet a stranger and to make everyone feel welcomed and cared about. Matthew is preceded in death by his grandparents, Charles "Red" and Shirley Garrigan, Laddy Cusick, and Kenneth Anderson; and aunt, Becky Serens. He is survived by his parents, Bret and Beth Garrigan; siblings, Billy and Sarah; the family dog, Sky who is "the best dog in the whole world"; grandmother, Ramona Cusick; sister-in-law, Jayme; niece, Liberty; nephew, Justice; Godparents, Jon and Maureen Garrigan; and many loving Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins. To honor Matthew's life, please continue to do as Matthew would ... share a kind smile, help others in need without expecting anything in return, and when you see a friend, honk and wave.
