Michael "Wyatt" Dale Stelzer, age 62, of Minneapolis, Minnesota, passed away peacefully on May 11, 2025, surrounded by the love of family and friends. A proud U.S. Navy veteran, Wyatt lived life with unmatched passion, energy, and dedication to those he held dear.
Born on February 28, 1963, Wyatt's life was marked by service, adventure, and creativity. A lifelong and enthusiastic Philadelphia Eagles fan, his presence brought warmth, humor, and contagious enthusiasm to every gathering.
Wyatt was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend. His passion for tinkering, playing guitar, and riding his beloved Harley Davidson showcased his adventurous spirit and creative heart. Whether working on a project, playing music, or riding the open road, Wyatt embraced life's simple joys.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Shari Cloutier; stepmother, Judith Stelzer; and his son, Jon Michael Harvey. Their memories lived on through Wyatt's stories and unwavering family devotion.
Wyatt leaves behind his loving wife, Lana Stelzer; children Melissa Morris, Andrew Stelzer (Marisa Stelzer), and Sarah Wagner (Nick Wagner); and his cherished grandchildren Colton, Hailey, and Addie. Wyatt's family was his greatest source of pride and joy.
Wyatt will be remembered as a vibrant, kind, and creative soul who touched many lives. His legacy of love, laughter, and adventure will inspire all who had the privilege to know him.
