The Mirasol Country Club community is mourning the reported passing of Matt Lambert, a respected club-management professional whose career and dedication left a lasting impression on members, colleagues, employees and friends.
News of Lambert’s death was shared by the Mirasol Board on September 2, 2026, prompting an outpouring of appreciation from people who knew him and remembered the contribution he made to the Mirasol community. Reports have described him as a talented and dedicated leader whose influence extended well beyond his professional responsibilities.
Lambert became closely associated with The Country Club at Mirasol after joining the club in 2003 as clubhouse manager. In 2005, he was promoted to General Manager and Chief Operating Officer, positions in which he became an important part of the club’s development and continued growth.
During his years at Mirasol, Lambert earned recognition for his leadership and commitment to the club-management profession. He was named Club Executive of the Year in 2024 by Club Management magazine and the Club Managers Association of America, an honor that recognized his leadership, professionalism, mentoring and broader contributions to the industry. He was also recognized in 2025 as Facility Manager of the Year by the Racquet Sports Professional Association’s Florida Division.
Yet for many members of the Mirasol community, Lambert’s legacy was about more than awards or professional achievements. Tributes following news of his death have emphasized his kindness, generosity and willingness to make time for people. Friends and members remembered someone who would listen, offer assistance and make others feel valued even while carrying significant responsibilities of his own.
That personal connection helped make Lambert a particularly valued figure within the Mirasol community. His relationships with members and colleagues were built through years of everyday interactions, conversations and acts of kindness, leaving memories that many are now drawing upon as they come to terms with his loss.
Lambert’s professional journey began before his years at Mirasol. After graduating from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, he worked in the restaurant industry before moving into country-club management. His career included experience at The Polo Club of Boca Raton before he joined Mirasol during its early development.

As the Mirasol community mourns, friends, colleagues and members are left to remember the years Lambert devoted to the club and the relationships he built along the way.
