In Loving Memory of Mathew Cooper – Supporting His Family
Raising funds to support Nicola, Emily and Jack after the loss of Matt.
Dunedin, Otago
Mathew George Cooper passed away unexpectedly at work on Friday, 1 May 2026. He leaves behind his devoted wife, Nicola, his beloved children, Emily and Jack, and many friends and family who will miss him deeply.
Matt was a truly dedicated and long-serving member of the Preens Apparelmaster family, having given more than 30 years of service. Nicola is also a valued member of our Preens team.
His passing has come as a profound shock and has left a significant void in the lives of all who knew and loved him. Funds raised will go towards supporting his family with living costs as they navigate life on a single income.
