Publish in a newspaper

Alex Mathew was a devoted husband, father, son, brother, and friend. Born in Adoor, Kerala, he moved to Bangalore in
1982 to attend Bishop Cottons Boys School. In 1990, he came to the United States and earned a business degree
from Vanguard University and MBA from National University. In 1999, he married Annie, and together they built a loving
home. In 2006, they welcomed Gabriel, and in 2009, Hope, his precious children. Alex had a successful career as a
financial professional at Follett, but his true passion was serving at Metro Church of God, where he played a pivotal
role in administration and finance. His leadership, wisdom, and dedication were instrumental in strengthening the
church's impact and fostering its growth.
A mentor and coach, he poured into the younger generation, coaching Gabe and Hope's basketball teams and guiding
many. Known for his selflessness, leadership, and passion for bringing people together, he was the glue of every
community he touched.
He is survived by his wife, Annie, children, Gabe & Hope, parents, John & Grace Mathew, brother Jose (Shaji) Mathew,
and extended family in the United States and India. Alex lived a life of faith, love, and service. Though he is no
longer with us, his legacy will live on in our hearts forever.
Rest in peace, Alex until we are all reunited with Jesus and our loved ones.

I worked with Alex at Follett and he was always so willing to help. Such a very nice man and it was so obvious that he loved his family and church. He was truly an example of A Man of God. My sincere condolences and pray God gives you peace and comfort through your sorrow.
