Graham, Matthew J. (5 Aug 1985 – 5 Jun 2022)

Matthew John Graham, born August 5, 1985, sadly left us Sunday, June 5, 2022 at his home in Thorp, Wisconsin, two months before his 37th birthday.

Matt is survived by two children: Bradley Soeller of Washington State and William Graham of Stanley; his father, John Graham of Thorp; his mother, Linda Lewallen of Stanley; a brother, William Graham and his wife Brook of Stanley; a sister, Brenda Graham of Thorp; his maternal Grandmother, Barbara Lewallen of Stanley; along with many aunts, uncles, and cousins; and his nephews and nieces who enjoyed having him as an uncle.

He was preceded in death by his Grandparents, Walter and Viola Graham, and Granddad, Lewallen.
Matt attended Stanley-Boyd School District. His entrepreneur mindset created business ventures in the art of dry walling and finishing work in homes and businesses across the area. Matt was a tall and handsome man with a big smile that would light up a room. He felt deeply about life and freedom. He enjoyed the outdoors, fishing with his dad and spending time with family and friends; telling stories of his grandparents and children. Matt always brought a smile to everyone's face.

Funeral services were held on Saturday, June 11, 2022 at the Full Gospel Mission Church in Stanley, where Matt had attended and was baptized.
