Matthew Louis Suite Sr. was born in Charlotte Hall, Maryland on January 27, 1929. He was predeceased by his parents, Louis and Anna Adell Suite; his wife, Ruth B. Suite; and his sons, Matthew L. Suite, Jr. and David Suite. He is survived by his devoted daughter, Cynthia L. Suite (Glenn) of Mechanicsville, Maryland; six grandchildren, Matt III (Sonny), Michael, Michele, Diane, Brian, and C.J.; nine great grandchildren; and one great great grandchild.

He graduated from Margaret Brent High School and shortly thereafter went to work at Borghese in Washington, DC where he learned the skill of guilding. This skill made it possible for him and his wife of 62 years, Ruth B. Suite, to have a lifelong picture framing business, The Gold Leaf Shop, which closed in August 2016. Mr. Suite loved being with his family at cookouts, playing cards, and attending different events his grandchildren were involved in. He was a kind and generous man and loved by many.
