TODD's obituary
With heavy hearts, we announce the peaceful passing of Brother Todd Mathiesen on November 6, 2023. Born on August 6, 1959, Todd was a beloved brother, uncle, and dedicated attendee at the Peace United Methodist Church and the Disabled American Veterans organization.
Todd spent his childhood and formative years in San Jose, California, where he started his elementary education in 1964. He moved to 241 Bieber Dr, San Jose, CA 95123, graduating from elementary school in 1972, and middle school in 1974. In 1978, Todd became a proud graduate of Santa Clara High School.
In his later life, Todd experienced the joy of gaining siblings and also endured the pain of losing parents. His life journey was shaped by these experiences, yet he remained a pillar of strength and love, especially to his nieces and his brothers-in-law.
Todd is survived by his sisters, Virginia Marie Mathiesen, Janet Kromminga, and Kay Bean, his nieces, Jenelle Marie Linsmeier and Samantha Kathryn Bean Campos, and his brothers-in-law, Brad Kromminga and Randy Bean.
He was predeceased by his mother, Kathryn Angela Gove, his father, Robert David Mathiesen, his aunt, Janet Dorothy Mathiesen, and his grandfather, Christian Mathiesen. Todd also mourned the passing of his beloved cousin, Paul Robert Owens, and his aunts, Evelyn Katherine Mathiesen and Carol Ann Mathiesen.
A memorial service to celebrate Todd's life will be held on December 9, 2023, at 11:00 AM at the Peace (formerly Sunnyhills) United Methodist Church.
Todd was an avid reader, with his favorite book being The Bible. His faith was a beacon in his life, guiding him through life's challenges and joys. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
