Obituary
Hank was born to Marlo and Charlene (Bame) Sundseth in Bellingham, WA on February 15, 1960.
He attended Meridian Elementary School where he shared 2nd grade class with his future wife.
Hank had a love for music, his favorite group was The Rolling Stones, and his extensive collection of LPs and CDs reflected that. He was also passionate about his Minnesota Vikings and the Minnesota Twins, rooting for them year after year.
When Hank was in High School and attending Central Lutheran Church, he met Jody Hallmark, and, in 1981, she married the man of her dreams.
In 1984, Hank joined the U.S Army and was a Veterinary Food Inspector for 22 years. His career moved the family around and they were able to experience European living, as well as Alaska, California, and Virginia.
He is preceded in death by his father, Marlo A., and brother, Marlo L. Sundseth.
He is survived by his wife, Jody, of 36 years; daughters, Jessica (Andrew) Crabtree, Ashley (Justin) Becker, and Lacey (Joshua) Sipos; brother, Danny (Jayne); sister-in-law, Donna; his mother, Charlene; and grandchildren, Avangeline, Natalie, and Fiona Crabtree and Jacob, Toby, and Alex Becker.
Hank will be greatly missed by all those who knew and loved him as much as his family.

I am grieving with you. I also pray for peace, acceptance, and relief of the heartache this brings to you. It was a joy to know Hank, as well as Jody and their children. They provided a sweet, wonderful wife for my son, Joshua and i am so very appreciative.
Hank was a kind, loving man who adored his wife, daughters, their spouses, grandchildren and his music and provided such a rich family life for them.
It is with love and deep gratefulness that I send this message to the family of Hank Sundseth. I am grateful for the opportunity to see that Hank was surrounded by so much love and appreciation throughout his life. There was no lack of support and love for this wonderful man.
Peace be with you all and may God bless you richly.
