Stephanie E. Mateer

Stephanie E. Mateer, 67, of Lewistown, passed away peacefully at her home on Sunday, July 26, 2026.

Born Sept. 25, 1958, in Arcadia, Fla., she was the daughter of the late Charles Foster and Betty J. Kinzer. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Robert W. Mateer, and a brother.

Stephanie is survived by her children, Amanda Hatt and Michael Hatt, both of Florida; her in-laws, James Mateer Jr. and his wife, Juniata, of Reedsville, and Joyce R. Roushia and her husband, Scott, of North Carolina; and her beloved dog, Buddy.

Stephanie cherished the people in her life, and they cherished her right back.
