Michael Mathews, 54, entered into eternal peace on November 2, 2013 at Milford Regional Hospital. He is survived by his wife, Molly Mathews, daughter Christina Mathews Kuruvilla, son, Stanley Mathews and son-in-law Dennis Kuruvilla.
Michael was born in Kerala, India, and was the son of the late Mathew Mulakunnath and is survived by mother Aleyamma Mulakunnath.
Michael’s passion for accounting began in India where he studied and taught the subject. He married the love of his life, Molly, on November 22, 1982 and then immigrated to the United States in 1983 to live out the American dream.
Michael was a devoted husband and amazing father. With Molly, he successfully raised their two children in Medway, MA and taught them to be independent adults. Michael worked at General Motors for 26 years and started his own tax preparation and accounting practice in 1990.
Michael's family and friends will always remember him as a selfless man who always put everyone else's needs and happiness above his own. He was most proud of raising his family and was known to say "I have done my job." He was able to walk his daughter, Christina, down the aisle in 2012 and see his son, Stanley, graduate with an engineering degree in 2013.
Michael was able to retire early and spent the last 3 years traveling and truly enjoying life with his beloved wife Molly. Most recently they visited India, Italy, Key West, NYC, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, New Hampshire and Maine. He also enjoyed riding his motorcycle any moment he could with Molly.
