Matthew Anacker Obituary
Matthew was born March 31, 1966, in Paris, IL. He was a dedicated son, brother and uncle.
Matthew was the beloved son of William D and the late Sandra Anacker. He was a cherished brother to Michelle (Rick) Herring. Matthew didn't have any children but loved his nieces and nephew like they were his own. He was a loving uncle to Dakotah Adrienne, Cheyenne Lynne, Ryder Mathew, Rhylynne Adrienne "The Bird" and Lucy Catherine "Little Lulu."
Matthew was preceded in death by his sister Robyn Lynne Anacker, his grandparents Lawrence "Grandad" and Marjorie "Granny" Propst and William A and Clara Mae Anacker.
Matthew had many hobbies over the years, making great memories and lifelong friends. Matthew was a member of Ansar Shrine, Effingham Country Club and a lifetime member of Marshall Masonic Lodge #133. He enjoyed playing golf and cycling.
Per Matthew's request, cremation was entrusted to Samaritan Funeral Home.
Graveside services will be held on Wednesday July 30, 2025 at 11:00 am (EST) at Clarksville Cemetery. The family will host a Celebration of Life at a later date.

On behalf of all of us at Sav-Rx, I would like to express our heartfelt condolences on the passing of Matt. We were deeply saddened to hear the news.
It was truly a privilege to have known Matt. I will miss his random check in's and his fiery spirit. He always shared with me how amazing his family is and how much he enjoyed spending time with all of you. I was so shocked to hear the news when I just spoke with him a day before he passed and he was so excited to travel the Midwest and hopefully get to visit Nebraska and play golf here.
William, please let me know if you need anything as you navigate this new territory.
