Matthew Wayne Bullington, age 49, of Rio Rancho, NM died suddenly Sunday, September 22, 2013 after doing what he loved the most - celebrating life with his family and friends. A caring, patient, hard-working family man, Matt was an incredibly calm, happy guy who never complained and was remarkably talented at working on everything from complex office machinery to home remodeling projects. Among his favorite pastimes were bacon, beer (IPA's) and tequila. Matt was born in Terre Haute, Indiana on September 24, 1963 and moved to California as a child. He graduated from Burbank High School in Burbank, California, and went to work for Fujifilm USA in the Fuji Photo Division. There, he met the love of his life, Christina, was engaged to her after two dates, and married her in 1991. Matt and Christina moved to Albuquerque, NM in 2006, where he went to work for Konica Minolta Business Solutions as a Senior Technician. Matt was preceded in death by his father, Kenneth Bullington. He is survived by his mother, Rose Gunn; brothers, Steve, Robert and John Bullington; sisters, Helen Barrett and Kate Stone; wife Christina; daughters, Natasha and Britnie; son Kenny; granddaughters, Ryan Lynn and Madison Evans; four nephews, three nieces, five great nieces and five great nephews as well as numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who all loved him dearly and will miss him greatly every day.
