Beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend;
Matthew "Mat" T. Rotondi, 39, of Pelham, New Hampshire, died unexpectedly on Sunday May 25, 2025, at Southern New Hampshire Medical Center.
Born in Hyannis, MA, September 12, 1985, the loving son of Al and Sue (Alger) Rotondi, he attended Pelham schools and was a graduate of Pelham High School Class of 2004. Mat went on to attend Dean College.
A man of many interests and talents, he was most recently a server in the restaurant industry. He also was a talented and passionate dancer and performer, and later in his life he became a popular online reviewer of movies for friends and the public.
Mat enjoyed entertaining others even at an early age, bringing laughter and joy to all who were a part of his life. Being a great listener and borderline psychic, Mat showed a strong empathy towards family and friends.
This "connection" extended to his love of animals, with his most recent fur babies including his cats Milo, Axl, Tobie, and his dog Frodo. He had a passion for journaling and dabbled in painting as well.
Besides his parents, he is survived by his brother Alex, sister-in-law Natalie, and two nephews Dom and Vince Rotondi, all of Milford, NH. Also, his Partner Zachary H. Hapgood of Milford, NH, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend his Memorial Visitation to be held on Friday June 6, 2025, at the PELHAM FUNERAL HOME 11 NASHUA RD. in PELHAM, NH from 2:00 to 4:00 PM. Words of Remembrance will be shared by the family at 4:00 pm. His Committal Services will be held privately for the family later. E-condolences/directions at www.pelhamfuneralhome.com.
