Charles Edward Mattison Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

South Glens Falls On Tuesday November 10th 2020, God sent his very best angel for Charles Edward Mattison and brought him home. Ed was born September 1st 1958 in Glens Falls and was the son of late Lawrence and Marion Mattison. In his younger years, Ed enjoyed many years hunting alongside his father. Hunting on Smith Mountain and along Ralph Road was a cherished area for him, long after his father’s passing. He took his daughters, son and son-in-law to the same woods he hunted with his beloved father and dear friends. From the start of hunting season until the end, from sun up to sun down he could only be found in those woods on his wheeler. With a good cell signal though, he could always be reached. Ed spent the last 31 years of his life with Jackie, the most devoted and loving lifelong companion you could ever ask for! In earlier years Ed enjoyed spending time with his girls and taking them on motorcycle rides. Ed also spend years bowling in leagues and shooting pool with friend, with Jackie by his side. They followed the band Country Express for over 20 years enjoying many years singing and dancing together. As life went on and became more simple, four wheeling and hunting gave Ed the simple and content retired life he was looking forward to and enjoyed the most. He will be forever remembered for the fierce love he had for his girls and grandchildren. His stubbornness to do things his way and on his own terms, was passed down to his daughters. He will always be known for his reliability, no matter who was in need he was only ever a phone call away. He will be remembered for his very own sometimes made up mighty words of wisdom and his tinkering around with things he believed he could fix or bring new life to it. Ed was a simple man. He had all he ever needed in the love of his children, family, and friends and trust in Jesus.
