Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Arthur F. Matties III, age 61, passed away on November 6th, 2021 at Lawnwood Regional Medical Center.
Art was born in Detriot and raised in Garden City, Michigan.
He worked in the City of Fellsmere at B&W Growers for the past 3 years as a shipping loader. Art’s forklift operating abilities made loading freight seem simple. His work ethic and inspiration will greatly be missed but will live on in his stepchildren.
Art was raised in the Catholic faith, and he was a strong believer in Christ.
Art graduated from the University of Central Florida with a bachelors degree in accounting.
He is survived by his wife, Mary Sarkisian; sisters, Lynn Ross (David) and Janet Roberts (Mike); sister-in-law, Jackie Matties; son-in-law, Andres Duran; step daughters, Malina Merzoian, Dina Sarkisian, Reema Sarkisian; five grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by parents, Arthur and Joyce Matties; and brother, Jeffrey A. Matties.
Arthur will be greatly missed and loved by all that knew him.
A Memorial Service will be held at Thomas S. Lowther Funeral Home & Crematory, located at 1655 27th Street, Vero Beach, FL 32960 on November 20th, 2021. A gathering of family and friends will start at 1:00 pm with a prayer service beginning at 2:00pm.

Art was a very special person and one of a kind. He made an impact in my life and did not know it simply by being the grateful, genuine soul that he was. You will be greatly missed my friend. May you Rest In Peace.

I have no words to express the grief I’m feeling for the loss Artie. I will miss Artie’s wit, humor, and his one liners. He was always reminding me how warm it was down in Florida during our colder months up here. Always saying, hang on, I have to open up the window. You were taken way to soon. I’m sure you & Jeff are up there catching up on everything, and planning your next adventure. I love you Artie, and to say I will miss you is an understatement. My prayers go out to all that love Artie.

I can’t believe you’re gone. Like my other brother I will forever miss and love you. Although you didn’t see me I truly believe you heard everything I said to you. I am glad I was able to spend your last days with you and watch you go to mom. Dad and Jeff. I love you baby brother.
