LATHAM - James “Jimmy” Paul Matan, 58, passed away Thursday, September 6, 2018 at his home. Born in Albany on December 30, 1959.
Jimmy was raised and educated in the Capital Region and has been a resident of Latham since 1982. He started his career as an auto mechanic where he was well known for his auto body work.

Jimmy married the love of his life Karen Lynn Matan on April 27, 1985 in Latham and went on to build a family with their two daughters, Michelle and Meghan Matan. He enjoyed boating and camping with his family at Brant Lake in the Adirondacks. He had absolute pride in being able to support his family.
