In Loving Memory of Matt

On June 20th, our beloved Matt was tragically taken from us in a sudden car accident. His passing has left an irreplaceable void in the lives of all who knew and loved him.

Matt was more than a husband—he was Van’s rock, best friend, and the primary provider for their household. Now, Van is faced with the overwhelming task of navigating life without him, emotionally and financially. She is doing her best to stay strong.

We are reaching out to our community of friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers to help support Van during this critical time. Your donation—no matter the amount—will go directly toward helping Van with:

• Essential living expenses

• Ongoing bills and immediate needs

• Providing a cushion as she begins to rebuild her life

Every contribution is deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this campaign with others who may be able to help. Your support—whether through a donation or by spreading the word—means more than words can express.

Thank you for being part of the love and strength surrounding Van during this time.

Visitation will take place on Thursday, July 10, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. at St. Michael’s Catholic Church (611 Third Street South, Stillwater, MN), followed by a Catholic Funeral Mass at 11:00 a.m. A luncheon and time for sharing stories will follow the Mass.
