Matthew Mark Paulsen, 43, of Idaho Falls, lost his battle with PTSD on September 18, 2020.
Matthew was born to Mark Paulsen and Susan Clark MacKay on August 27, 1977, in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
After leaving the Navy, Matt lived in Virginia for a short time before returning to Idaho to be closer to his son and the rest of his family.
Matt enjoyed camping with his friends and family and taking his ATV on many adventures. He always volunteered to be the camp chef and made sure nobody left hungry. Matt loved his Harley and told everyone that life was about the ride, not the destination. He often spoke of his trip to Canada as one of his favorite rides, but it seemed like every ride was special when he talked about them.
He was preceded in death by his brother, Ryan Paulsen, and his grandparents, Rullen and Barbara Paulsen and Gay Clark.
