Mathew Timothy Major
Mathew Timothy Major It is with the deepest sadness we announce the death of Mathew Major, on Monday 17 April, 2023, aged just 65, from cancer. Mathew was a wonderful brother, brother-in-law, uncle, great uncle, nephew, godfather and friend to so many people. He will be missed beyond words. He worked in the recycling industry all his life and ran several successful businesses. He made the move to Brighton from St.Albans over 30 years ago to develop his career, most recently as Director of WMR Solutions. Whilst he loved his work, his passion was football. He previously held roles as a sponsor, director, chairman and even owner of various football clubs in Sussex and Oxfordshire. In 2014 he was appointed Chairman of Sussex County Football Association and more recently Football Association Representative. We invite family and friends to celebrate Mathew's life on Friday 12 May 2023, at the Downs Crematorium, Bear Road, Brighton BN2 3PL and afterwards at the American Express Community Stadium, Village Way, Brighton BN1 9BL.
