WALTER
Matthew Christopher Walter, proud Journeyman Carpenter, passed away in true Matt fashion, on July 4th, 2021.
Matt was born in April 1982 to parents Karen Saba (nee Mackley) and Vic Walter, and was raised in Northeast Philadelphia. He grew roots in Rhawnhurst, Burholme, Fox Chase and Rockledge through his lifetime. From a young age, his creative and artistic gifts were obvious - he could draw incredible interpretations of whatever was requested of him, and even designed a folder for his elementary school featuring its mascot as a goalie. Later in life, he used this talent to decorate his own body in the form of colorful, original tattoos and loved showing people his new ink.
In 2002, he joined the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, Local 158. He honed his skills throughout his career and became a master of his craft. He decorated his work helmet with meaningful stickers and wore it with great honor each work day.
His proudest achievement was becoming a father to his beautiful, silly, happy son, Matthew Jr. Watching Matt with his son was a true joy - his love, patience, and adoration when they were together was beyond measure.
Matt enjoyed good food, watching Marvel movies and listening to all kinds of music. His own laugh was infectious, but making other people laugh was one of his favorite pastimes, and he was damn good at it. His family credits him with being the funniest person they know. Those lucky enough to be loved by him knew him as a generous man, so no one was surprised to learn that he is an organ donor. Even after his passing, he is giving what he can to those in need.
To have known Matt at his best was a gift. He will be missed forever.
Matthew is survived by his parents, Vic (Father), Karen (Mother) and Michael (Stepfather), his siblings Kate, Tom, Erin, Paul, Michael and Greg, his brother and sister in law Anthony and Samantha, his nieces and nephews, Gabriella, Ava, Leo and Jace, the love of his life and fiance, Michele, his step-daughter, Marissa, and his perfect son, Matthew Jr., as well his dozens of cousins, aunts, uncles and other extended family.
Relatives and friends are invited to his viewing, Friday, July 9, 2021 from 6:00-8:00 pm at Wackerman Funeral Home 8060 Verree Road Philadelphia, PA 19111.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Matthew’s College fund via GoFund me: https://gofund.me/50bf0752
