Feb. 2, 1976 – Nov. 3, 2020
Shrewsbury – It is with heavy broken hearts that the family of Matthew G. Haddad mourn his untimely passing from this world into the arms of Jesus.
Those who knew Matthew, even just a little, lost a bright light in their lives. He was soft spoken, gentle, funny, handsome and kind. He had the biggest heart and enjoyed spending time reminiscing with friends and family. His giggle was contagious, and he always had a smirk on his face. When you think of Matt, celebrate the joyful memories you have of him. Remember that life is short and live every day to the best of your ability. Always express your love for one another and never take life for granted.
Matt will be deeply missed every day by his Parents, George and Angela (Simone) Haddad of Shrewsbury, his sisters Michelle Kilroy of Worcester, Elaina and her husband Keith Gauvin of Spencer, his nephews, Timothy, Anthony, and Nicolas and niece Alivia along with extended family and friends. Waiting to greet him with open arms in heaven are his maternal grandparents, Flora (Zollo) and John “Red ” Simone, his paternal grandparents, George and Victoria (Matook) Haddad.
Matt was born in Worcester on 2/2/1976 and raised in Shrewsbury where he graduated in 1994 from Shrewsbury High School. He continued his education at QCC earning an associate degree in Liberal Arts and a bachelor’s degree in Urban Studies and Business from Worcester State College. His work ethic was strong as he took great pride, driving school buses for many years, delivering newspapers, umpiring for youth softball, and a friendly face at the customer service desk at Shaw’s in Shrewsbury. He loved God, his family, friends and he was loved tremendously. He enjoyed listening to music, decorating his apartment with framed photos of family and close friends to display his most cherished memories. Mathew was the “Best” and his smile will be treasured forever.
