Matthew Ryan Morriss

Matthew Ryan Morriss, of Monahans, TX, went to be with the Lord on September 13, 2024, at the age of 31.

A memorial service will be held on September 21, 2024, at 10:00 at Bethel Baptist Church in Monahans, TX with Pastor Gordon Cox officiating.

Matthew was born December 2, 1992, in Monahans, TX, to Danny and Andrea Morriss. He grew up and attended school there. Growing up, he was involved in t-ball, soccer, baseball, junior rodeo, football, Cub Scouts and Tae Kwan Do. He was baptized December 17, 2000, at Bethel Baptist Church in Monahans, TX.

Matthew was adventurous and daring and knew no fear. He loved to be outside… riding motorcycles and fishing. He had an infectious smirky grin and always pulled for the underdog. He had a big heart and a free spirit. He lived from the heart and marched to his own drum, wherever it took him.

He is survived by his parents, Danny and Andrea Morriss; brothers, Johnny (JJ) Morriss, Justin and wife, Cheryl Morriss; grandmother, Gladys Pearce; uncle, Jason Shoemaker; aunt, Lori Jones; nephews, Hayden Morriss, Braxton Morriss, Braden Haley; niece, Haybri Morriss; “his kids,” Anavay and Jacob; and his best friend, Brittany Bustos, as well as many cousins, aunts and uncles.
