George Mathew

October 8, 1949 — December 22, 2017

George Mathew (Thampi) was born in Chengannur, Kerala, South India on October 8th, 1949. He was the fourth child born out of nine children to the late M.K. George and Mariamma George. He was active in school and church throughout his younger years. He loved playing soccer, swimming, fishing, and was involved with a local acting troupe that performed Christian skits and plays for the village. He often was a main character in those productions. As a member of the church choir he was also involved with singing, other church activities, and caroling during the holidays. After completing high school, George went to Indo American Industrial Training Institute in Thiruvalla, Kerala where he completed his training in air conditioning and refrigeration. This training allowed George to go work in Indore and Orissa in Northern India. In 1974, after a few years in North India, George met Amminikutty (Ammini) and were married on April 18th, 1974. After spending a few years together, God gave Ammini a chance to go the United States during the nursing shortage in 1976. After two years apart, Thampichan came to the United States in 1978 to join his wife in Boston, Massachusetts. He continued his involvement in church activities, church choir, and caroling. He worked for notable companies like Raytheon and Instrumentation Laboratory. He traveled to Italy many times for training. He also owned and operated an Indian grocery store in Belmont, Massachusetts for many years. Both Thampichan and Ammini enjoyed over forty years of married life in the Boston area until Ammini passed away on June 22nd, 2015. After his wife passed, he moved to Dallas to live with his son Anil. During his time in Dallas, Thampichan enjoyed spending time with his grandson, Zacharias and worshipping with the believers. Two and a half years later God called Thampichan home to be with his partner and his Lord Jesus Christ. He is survived by his daughter, Annie Mathew; his son, Anil Mathew and his wife Jency Mathew; and his grandson, Zacharias Paul Mathew.
