Matthew Ryan Colley, 28, of Canyon Country, CA passed away on Saturday, June 5th. He was born June 9, 1992, while his family was stationed in Colorado Springs, CO. He was the 6th and youngest child of Ed and Kathy Colley. Matt moved to Canyon Country with his family in 1995. Matt graduated from Canyon High School and attended College of the Canyons earning his Associates degree. He was employed by the KHTS "Hometown Station" web/marketing department where he excelled in web design and web development which were largely self-taught skills. He enjoyed learning relatively random things from the internet and podcasts and listened to both at warp speed. Matt loved video games and played with many online, including his best friend Alex, and even made trips to attend conventions across the country despite his aversions to traveling and being out of his "element". As an adult, he became more adventurous and enjoyed snowmobiling, dirt-biking, and snowboarding; he excelled at all three. He loved and devoted much of his time to his dog, "40". He had the patience of a saint with his dog and his beloved nieces and nephews. Matthew is survived by his parents, Edward and Kathryn Colley, his siblings, Melissa, Carolyn, and James, his nephews, Alexander (who was also his best friend) and Tyler, his nieces, Katelyn, Juliana, and Allison. Matt was predeceased by his older brothers, Alan and Stephen, and his grandparents, Aldine and Earl Colley and Jacqueline Pavia. His life will be celebrated at 2:30 pm on Saturday, August 7th at the United Methodist Church on Bouquet Canyon Road.
