Heath William Poser, aged, 54, died of Glioblastoma brain cancer on September 14, 2022. After a long, hard, and strong battle he went home to be with his lord and savior.
Heath was born on March 18, 1968, in Conrad, Montana to Bill and Bonnie Poser. He graduated from Conrad High School and then attended and graduated from MSU Bozeman with a degree in Education.
He taught math and science for many years at Phillipsburg High School in Montana. He influenced many students both as learners and individuals. Heath also had a passion for coaching and encouraged kids both on and off the court. After stepping out of the classroom, he drove a truck for many years on the west side of Montana. Heath loved his family, spending time in the mountains doing adventurous things like snowmobiling, skiing, hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, and building the BIGGEST bonfires possible.
Heath was always willing to help people in need and had a generous heart toward the “down and outers” of life. He had a great sense of humor and always looked for ways to make people laugh and have a good time. His family and friends will always remember him as a person who loved life and lived to the fullest.
