Obituary

MARSHALL - Matthew Alan Fry (Matt Matt), left us on July 27, 2024, after a hard-fought battle with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, at the age of 29. He was born on May 25, 1995, in Madison, Wis., the son of Phillip and Brenda (Pulver) Fry. Matt was a beloved dad, son, grandson, brother, nephew, cousin, uncle, and friend. He was a graduate of Marshall High School in 2013, where he was a proud Cardinal.


Matt was a jack of all trades and held many jobs. He loved going for walks, mowing the lawn, talking with anyone who would listen, and spending time with his kids. He valued his friends and family deeply, always looking out for them and helping whenever they needed. Matt was known for his charm, kindness, sense of humor, and loyalty. He loved the outdoors, specifically his yard and his flag pole, wearing shorts with work boots year round, and listening to Luke Bryan on repeat.


Matt is survived by his mother, Brenda; daughter, Zoey; son, Blake; siblings, Ron (Heather) Fry, Rick (Jennifer) Fry, Raquel (James) Hansen, Heather (Kyle) Wallace, Kevin (Allison) Fry and Andrew Fry; and numerous nieces, nephews (also known to them as Uncle donkey), aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. He was preceded in death by his father, Phillip; and grandmother, Phyllis; and many other loved ones. He will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.


His family would like to thank UW Health, Carbon Cancer Center, and SSM Health Oncology for their love and care. We also like to thank Dr. Kenkre, and Dr. Levin, and all the nurses who cared for Matthew.

Matt, you were one of a kind. I enjoyed transporting your son, Blake to school when he was 3 years old. I also enjoyed the talks we had when I came to pick Blake up. I remember you in high school when I was working there. You were talking about a job you had and I told you, "You're in the Big World." I'm glad we ran into each other at the park 2 weeks before you left this world. Rest in peace. You are in a better place. I'm going to miss you. Suzanne A Kuhlow
