Torrington, CT—Ed Matthews, a beloved member of the Torrington community, passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, August 15th, at the age of 63. His passing has left a significant emotional and financial impact on his family, who are now facing the difficult task of covering end-of-life expenses.
Ed was known for his kindness and generosity, always willing to help those around him. His sudden departure has left his family, especially his loving and devoted mother, struggling to cope not only with the grief but also with the financial burden that has come in the wake of his passing. After losing his life insurance policy following a cancer diagnosis in 2016, the financial strain has become even more challenging for the family.
To help ease this burden, Justin Matthews, Ed’s son, has organized a fundraiser titled "In Loving Memory of Ed Matthews." The fundraiser aims to raise $5,000 to cover the costs associated with Ed’s final arrangements. As of today, $100 has been raised from two generous donors, Audrey Gediman and Merica Martinez, who each contributed $50.
Ed Matthews will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His memory will live on in the hearts of his family and friends, who will cherish the time they spent with him and the love he shared with those around him.
We extend our deepest condolences to the Matthews family during this heartbreaking time. Our thoughts and prayers are with them as they navigate this difficult period.
