February 19, 2011 — November 12, 2026

It is with great sorrow and profound love that we announce the passing of our beloved Matthew Hosier, who left this world on November 12, 2026, at the tender age of 15. Born on February 19, 2011, in Cadillac, Michigan, Matthew was a young man who made a deep impact on the lives of everyone fortunate enough to know him. Matthew was the cherished son of Tabatha and Stris, who nurtured his adventurous spirit and supported his many interests with unwavering love. Despite his young age, Matthew exuded a wisdom and joy that belied his years. He was a beacon of positivity, always maintaining an upright mood, and his infectious smile could light up the darkest of rooms. His perseverance was remarkable, and he faced life's challenges with a resilience that inspired all who knew him. A student who had reached the 10th grade, Matthew's passion for learning was rivaled only by his enthusiasm for life. He had a keen interest in working on cars and dirtbikes, and he cherished the time spent with his friends, who he affectionately referred to as his "buds." Whether he was tinkering with engines or enjoying the thrill of a dirtbike ride, Matthew embraced life with open arms and a joyful heart. Tragically, Matthew's vibrant life was cut short in an unexpected accident while he was enjoying one of his favorite pastimes—a morning swim. He will be remembered for his courage, his warmth, and his unwavering happiness, qualities that endeared him to all who had the privilege of crossing paths with him. In honor of Matthew's memory, the family kindly suggests that donations be made to a charity of your choice, reflecting the spirit of giving that Matthew embodied in his life. Matthew's family wishes to extend their heartfelt gratitude to all who have offered their love and support during this difficult time. They find comfort in the special message "LLMH," a tribute to the lasting legacy of love and happiness that Matthew leaves behind. Matthew will be dearly missed but will forever remain in our hearts as a shining example of joy, perseverance, and love. His spirit will continue to inspire us all, and his memory will be a cherished treasure for those who knew and loved him.

In lieu of flowers, the family of Matthew Hosier welcomes donations to a charity, nonprofit, church, or organization of your choosing.
