He found joy in the smallest things (a little balloon, toys that light up\/make noise, 4-wheeler rides, honking horns, parades, motorcycles, fire trucks, police cars, swimming, and buzz lightyear to just name a few). Matthew was someone who loved unconditionally but when he was upset man he would happily let you know (usually by tossing a toy around). He taught us so much and we will forever be grateful on the time we had with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He will be dearly missed and has left a large hole in our lives, especially his mother, who has worked tirelessly to ensure he had the best life he possibly could, even with his various disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Matthew could not walk or talk, he had his own way to communicate with us. He was quick as a whip when he wanted something (especially when there was food on the table and we were taking too long to feed him).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLittle man\u201d Matthew\u2019s spirit will live on in the hearts that knew him. He touched so many in a positive way by his sweet smile. Till we meet again we love you to infinity and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The family would like to sincerely thank the caring nurses from Elara Caring and Help at Home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Matthew is survived by his mother, Kim (Mike) Wright of Decatur, Indiana; brother, Christopher (Cody) Robinette of Fishers, Indiana; brother, Todd (Chloe) Robinette of Frankton, Indiana; sister, Sophia Cole of Decatur, Indiana; brother, Colton Cole of Decatur, Indiana; maternal grandmother, Linda Davis of Decatur, Indiana; father, Scott (Jennifer) Robinette of Anderson, Indiana; step-sister, Mia Johnson of Anderson, Indiana; step-brother, Brayden Johnson of Anderson, Indiana; paternal grandmother, Shirley Hayden of Anderson, Indiana; aunt, Stacey (Brady) Baker of Pendleton, Indiana; and uncle, Eric (Melissa) Robinette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was preceded in death by a maternal grandfather, James Davis, and paternal grandfathers, Tom Hayden and Larry Robinette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A funeral service will be held at 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, August 13, 2024, at the Robert Loose Funeral Home, 200 W 53rd St. Anderson, Indiana.
