Michael Anthony Matuszewski, Jr.
August 24, 1982-June 16, 2018
Middletown, NY
Michael Anthony Matuszewski, Jr., beloved son, brother, father, uncle and friend, died unexpectedly on Saturday, June 16, 2018. He was 35 years old. Michael grew up in Middletown and graduated from Middletown Schools. Mike spent his life working alongside his father and sister and was an accomplished auto upholsterer. He loved everything to do with cars and sports. Mike was fun loving and care free. He could make anyone laugh- he brightened the lives of everyone who loved him. He was an amazing and loyal friend to so many and he will be deeply missed. Mike was irreplaceable.
The love for his son was immeasurable. There are no words to describe their love and bond. Michael III was his pride and joy. He loved his first born Kelsee with all his heart and was proud of the young woman she has grown to be. His greatest accomplishment was being a DAD.
