Matt was born on April 24, 1982, in Montgomery County, TN to Timmy Potter and Lisa Potter. He is the grandson of Lemoine and Patricia Black. Matt had a huge personality and an even bigger heart. He spent many years racing at Clarksville Speedway and loved being in the shop with his papaw. Matt enjoyed riding his motorcycle and eating, but more than anything spending time with his wife and daughter. He was one of the hardest workers you’d ever meet and would willingly give you the shirt off his back or the last dollar in his pocket. His memory will always be cherished by all that knew him. He worked at Hendrickson for over 15 years, and had just recently completed a motorcycle trip with his “Little Johnny and Blue”, they made 45 states in 10 days! Matthew is preceded in death by his daughter, Abree Dale Potter. Matthew leaves behind his loving wife and best friend, Alana Allbert Potter, and a beautiful, full of personality (like her daddy) 5-year-old daughter, Kirkley Dale Potter; father and mother-in-law, Randy and Vicki Allbert; sisters, Holli (Ty) Shearon, and Brittany Potter; sister in laws, Adrienne (Travis ) Beech and Ashley (Brad) Heflin; nieces and nephew, Addison, Ava Claire and Braden. Matt also leaves behind many friends and loved ones. Pallbearers will be Chris Steffen, John Smith, Chris Yarbrough, Brad Heflin,Justin Hogue, John Minon, and Larry Smith. Honorary Pallbearers will be Ben Britt, Dane Vinson, Jason Ussery, and Travis Beech. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to his daughter's trust fund.
