Matthew Jim Hass was born August 31, 1972 in Hallock, Minnesota to Brian and Cynthia (Heldt) Hass. He graduated from Willmar High School and furthered his education, graduating from North Dakota State University. He married Greta Ogdahl on September 8, 2007 at Calvary Lutheran Church in Willmar. Matt worked at Nutrien Ag Solutions in Sauk Centre for 28 years.

He was a member of First Lutheran Church in Sauk Centre. Matt enjoyed duck and goose hunting, turkey hunting, fishing, deer hunting with his daughters, snowmobiling, playing and coaching softball with his daughters, winning at cornhole, losing at Sequence, and being the worlds okayest brother!

Matt was a very wonderful man. He always gave 100% of himself in what he was doing. If it was work it was 100%. If it was his family it was 100%. If it was hunting or fishing it was 100%. If it was being a friend it was 100%. If it was playing catch with his girls or pitching balls in the backyard or researching bats for his girls he was in 100%. Teaching his daughters to hunt, you guessed it 100%!

He was so kind and compassionate to those he held close and even to strangers. His customers were not only his customers they were his friends. He loved working with his customers and helping them prosper. He was so great at his career and he loved it 100%. Matt was a wonderful father to his girls, he pushed them, he helped them learn new things with patience and understanding and answered all the questions. He was a wonderful husband who always had a comforting hug and an I love you! He loved his girls, all three of us, with such fierceness.

Survivors include his wife, Greta Hass of Sauk Centre; two daughters, Megan and Grace, both at home; sister, Cate (Josh) Gobershock of Bend, Oregon; brother and sisters-in-law, Michele (Paul) Maynard of Hawick, Jason (Heather) Ogdahl of New London, and Carrie Ogdahl of Willmar; and many nieces, nephews, and a wonderful village of friends who we consider family.

Matt was preceded in death by his parents; grandparents; mother-in-law; and brother-in-law.
