They process dead matter down to the simpler substances that plants can use to synthesize fresh, new life. and if they were not living our earth would be filled with dead plants and animals and the jungles and every thing would stink

Decomposers eat already dead animals so they don't rot. They are at the bottom of the food chain and start the food chain over again. Plants or animals eat decomposers, and animals/ plants eat them, which is eaten by another, and another, etc.
