Matt was born May 4, 1977 in Columbus, Ohio, the son of Jo Leah Herod of Myrtle and the late Anthony Scott Herod. He was a graduate of Myrtle High School and was a loyal employee of the CNI Corporation in New Albany for 15 years at the time of his death .
A Christian, Matt was a avid outdoorsman that included a love of water and fishing. He will be remembered for his passion for animals and as a farmer at heart. Matt lived his life with zest and his whole existence was to help others. A big man with an even bigger heart, he will be missed.
