of Conway, AR
October 6, 1996 - February 12, 2022
Matthew Casey Imboden, 25, was born in Conway, Arkansas, on October 6, 1996, to Michael Cory and Jill (Gifford) Imboden and departed this life Saturday, February 12, 2022, in Kansas City, Missouri.
Casey is survived by his loving family, his parents Cory and Jill Imboden of Conway, his brother Caleb (Katie) of Greenbrier, his grandparents Doug and Beverly Carter of Conway and Carol Gifford of Batesville, his aunts Saundra (Eric) Sturdivant of Vilonia and Carla (Tim) O'Dwyer of Conway and the love of his life Mercedes Dillard. He is also survived by cousins Jordan, Jaycee, and Joanna Sturdivant and Carsten and Campbell O'Dwyer and step-uncle Scott Carter. Casey also leaves behind many loving great-aunts and uncles, cousins and friends. Casey loved all his family with his whole heart. Casey was preceded in death by his grandfathers Dennis Gifford and Larry Imboden.
Casey loved the outdoors and especially spending time with his brother Caleb at his grandparents' farm, at the lake with his parents, and activities with his friends and his dog Able. Most importantly, he loved spending time with Mercedes. Casey often rescued puppies and kittens and, with the help of his family, found them loving homes.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers, that donations be made to Bethlehem House, 1115 Parkway St, Conway 72034 or Help Rescue Arkansas at helprescuear.org.
A celebration of life service will be held at 10:00 a.m. Saturday, February 19, 2022, at OneChurch of Conway, 1073 Front Street with Paul Hudson officiating. A graveside service will be held at 3:00 p.m. at Wyatt's Cemetery in Rosie, Arkansas.

Heartfelt condolences for everyone in this family. It takes a special person to help the helpless and all he did to help give cats and dogs a chance to live a happy, healthy, and loving life made the world a better place.
