Matthew Joel Radinovich was born Aug. 24, 1978, to Kevin & Cheryl Radinovich, and joined older brother, Jason. He grew up in Hines and graduated from Burns High School in 1996. After graduating Matt attended Lineman College in Meridian, Idaho. On May 6, 2000, he married the love of his life, Stephanie Weil.

They soon moved to Lakeview, where they began adding to their loving family. Joel Matthew was born prematurely and died shortly thereafter, creating a huge hole in their hearts. Mason Paul and Logan Matthew arrived over the next couple of years to complete this beautiful family and added unending joy and hunting buddies that he couldn’t wait to share outdoor adventures with.

Matt and his family moved back to Hines in 2006 where he started working for his Grandpa, Art Evans at Jiffy Electric. In 2009, Matt took over operation of the business until the time of his passing. Matt’s commitment to his customers, who soon became friends, was magnetic. He put his whole heart and soul into everything he did and showed so much integrity and respect to all he met.

Matt’s greatest joys in life involved time with his family and friends, with many adventures hunting, fishing and spending time in the great outdoors. He was so excited and proud when Mason and Logan shot their first elk or deer.

Matt was a kind and generous man, always ready to help someone with whatever they needed. His proudest accomplishments were being a loving husband to Stephanie, and father to Mason and Logan.

Matt is survived by his wife, Stephanie; sons, Mason and Logan; parents, Kevin and Cheryl Radinovich; brother, Jason (Stacey) Radinovich. He was preceded in death by his son, Joel; and his grandparents, Art and Marjorie Evans, John and Grace Radinovich.
