Matt's obituary

Raymond (Matt) Matthew Hessler, age 36 passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, October 1st at his childhood home in Inver Grove Heights, MN. Matthew was born on June 22nd, 1987 to Raymond and Katie Hessler in Saint Paul, MN. Matt graduated from Rosemount High School in 2005. He will forever be known for his gregariousness, sense of humor, quirks about eating (do not touch his food, ever), and commitment to looking good at all times. Matt was passionate about fitness, and loved people. 

He is survived by parents, Ray and Katie Hessler; siblings, Elizabeth, Kelly (Schuman), and Joe Hessler; as well as many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins who loved him madly. 

Family and friends of Matthew are invited to the visitation at 9 am, with a service (10 am) and luncheon to follow at Church of the Assumption at 51 7th St. W. Saint Paul, MN on Friday, October 13th, 2023 to reminisce, grieve, and support one another. 

In lieu of flowers, kindly consider a donation in memoriam to either the family to assist with the expenses associated with the sudden loss of their son or to MN Adult and Teen Challenge to support others in their battle against addiction.
