Matthew Disrud

1986 - 2021

Disrud, Matthew Lowell

LODI - Matthew Lowell Disrud, 34, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, May 11, 2021, ultimately ending his long battle with mental health challenges and addiction. He was born on Dec. 28, 1986, the son of Kensel "Kip" and Maria Disrud.

Matt graduated from Lodi High School in 2005 alongside many friends, all of whom saw his compassion and love for others. Matt often showed all this love, support, and fun learned from his parents to his sisters, Grace, and all his family and friends.

Matt shined with an indescribable bond with his son. There was no doubt that he loved Preston with his whole heart and everything he did was to be the best dad he could, whether it be playing, consoling, or sharing an inside joke only the two of them shared.

Matt is survived by his son, Preston (8); Grace Ryan; parents, Kensel "Kip" and Maria Disrud; grandmothers, Susanne Ahner and Karine Disrud; sisters, Shana Disrud and Ashley Disrud (Derek Forsell); and nieces, nephew, cousins, second cousins, aunts, uncles, and many friends.

Matt is preceded in death by his grandfathers, Ronald Ahner and Kensel Disrud.

A visitation will be held in remembrance on Saturday, May 22, 2021, from 1 p.m.-4 p.m. at GUNDERSON LODI FUNERAL AND CREMATION CARE, 157 S. Main St., Lodi, WI 53555. The family is encouraging those attending to please wear face masks.
