Brian “J” Matus, 47, of Ventnor City, NJ was born on April 17, 1975 in Philadelphia, PA. Unexpectedly, Jay passed away on March 30, 2023. He was predeceased by his mother, Eva Matus (Kupper), father, Brian Matus, and sister, Sheri Nogle.
Jay Matus had many titles. He was a brother, a son, a grandson, a cousin, a nephew and most importantly - an uncle to his three nieces, Ashley, Chelsea, and Shaina; and his 8 great nieces and nephews, MJ, Dominic, Eliza, Brianna, Kenzie, Zoey, Jayce, and Blake. Jay was one of the kids. He loved being with his many nieces and nephews and made them all feel so loved. He worked as an electrician at Matus Electric with his cousin, his best friend, Eric, and enjoyed the puzzles of being an electrician. Jay also loved spending time with Eric’s two daughters, Gabriella and Annalyse, who he adored.
Prior to working as an electrician, Jay worked as a server, which came easily since he was very much a people person. He was a member of Beacon Church and could recite relatable bible verses at the drop of a dime. Jay loved golfing, fishing, and family dinners. He enjoyed our family parties and helping out in any form (especially washing dishes). Jay was always the first one to agree to any type of activity as long as it meant being with family. Jay was easy going, care-free, and loved wholeheartedly without conditions. He will be missed by all who met him and will never be forgotten.
