Matthew Allen Blair passed away on February 11, 2007, in his home at the age of 39.

Matt was born in Lakewood, NJ. Matt graduated from Southport High School in 1986 and entered into the U.S. Navy. He served on board the USS Midway on the flight deck and reached the rank of Petty Officer 3rd Class, before being sent to Fighter Squadron Two in San Diego, CA, and then received his honorable discharge on June 24, 1994.

After faithfully serving his country he worked for the U.S. Postal Service and helped out working at "The Dragon's Claw" in the College Mall. Upon "The Dragon's Claw" opening up downtown he dedicated himself in full to "The Dragon's Claw" and was in the store more often than anyone else.

He moved into an apartment with three roommates and continued to live with one of the three until the time of his death six years later.

Upon "The Dragon's Claw" closing down, Matt worked for United Airlines and security at the Monroe County Public Library.
