MATIKO, Indigo (Matthew Davis Hewko Burt)

Indigo Matiko (Matthew Davis Hewko Burt)
March 24, 1984 – January 2, 2021
 
It is with sadness and much love that we announce the sudden passing of Matt at the age of 36 years. Born in Edmonton, he will be forever loved and remembered by both parents, mother Margaret, father Garry and step mother Maria; brothers Aaron, Zac, Chris and sister Shannon as well as numerous extended family and friends.

Matt loved life wholeheartedly. Matt had a winning smile and his laugh will never be forgotten. He was the light that reminded us that goodness still exists. Matt traveled the world and loved nature, music, and people. His exuberance left a lasting imprint on all who had the honour of knowing him. Matt had no bias, no prejudice, loved everyone and wished us all the best. An accomplished arborist he lived on Salt Spring Island, BC. His loss has devastated all who knew him. Due to Covid a celebration of life will be held at a later date. 
As Matt would say, “Peace,  Love Life”
