Matthew Neal Lehe

Aug. 26, 1983 - July 29, 2011 On July 29, 2011, our son, brother, family and friend, Matthew Neal Lehe, returned to the light and love he so beautifully manifested in this world. Through us, may his joy radiate onward. May his smile remind us of better days. And like the sun that fills the sky, may his memory burn bright in our hearts and minds, so that we may again be one with his loving presence. Matthew left behind his adoring parents, Robert and Dee Dee; his brother Sean and his fiancee Caren Etta, and her three sons, Bobby, Joey, and Julian. He is also survived by his loving grandmother, Elizabeth Lehe; aunts, Susan (Frank) Severs, Jane (Greg) Eggert; uncles, Tom Lehe, Greg and Richard Gliebe. He also leaves behind his cousins, Joe, Laura, Chris, Amanda, Max, Michael and Consuelo. He will be deeply missed by his girlfriend, Jessica Chasko and hundreds of people who all thought they were Matt's 'Best Friend,' because Matt made everyone feel like each and everyone of them were 'The Best.' Matthew was an enthusiastic horticulturist, he possessed the ability to excel at any sport and he had a passion for cooking and eating fine food with his family and friends. But what he really excelled at best was his ease at developing and maintaining beautiful friendships with everyone he came in contact with. A remembrance will be held August 10 at 3pm at the Campus Commons Clubhouse, 650 Commons Dr., followed by a reception for those wishing to celebrate Matthew's short but beautiful life. Per his parents request, please wear very casual attire. W.F. GORMLEY & SONS, FUNERAL DIRECTORS.
