  • Notes 
    • Mathias A. "Matt" Becher, age 93, longtime resident of Menasha, passed away late Friday, January 15, 2016 at the Heritage Peabody Community in Appleton. He was born in Neenah on May 1, 1922 to the late Mathias and Anna (Wolf) Becher. On June 28, 1947 he married Beverly Matzdorf who preceded him in death after almost 59 years of marriage.

      Matt was a proud Veteran, having served in the U.S. Army during World War II in the Signal Corps 44th Division, being stationed in France, Germany, and Austria. After his time in the service he worked for Kimberly-Clark, retiring after 44 years from their Lakeview plant. He was a devoted husband and father who enjoyed bowling, dartball, and was a diehard Chicago Cubs and Green Bay Packers fan.

      Matt will be missed by his six children: Sue Trimmel; Dennis (Kelly) Becher; Carol (Robert) Caston; Pam (Robert) Trader; Janet (Dennis) Seyfert-Peck; and Jennifer (Larry) Honts; his grandchildren: Julie Ann (Frank); Joe, Andy (Dror); Bobbi Jo (Mike); Jason (Kim); Sister Philomena "Michelle;" Christopher (Emily); Catherine (Brandon); Sister Rachel; Jonathan (Ashley); Rebekah; Marie (Joe); Mary; Ben; and Sabrina; as well as his great-grandchildren: Abbi, Zoey, Gavin, Clara, Ramsey, and Jonah.

      He was preceded in death by his sister and four brothers.

      A private family service will be held for Matt.
