"I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith" (2Timothy4:7)
Pennamma Koshy had the title of a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend. She was born on September 17, 1947 to the late Mathen Matai and Mrs. Kunjamma Mathai, Kollentazhikathu House, Pathanapuram, Kerala, India. She was the second of six siblings; her siblings are M.K. Mathai (Bangalore), Mathew K. Lukose (Dallas), Leelamma Thomas (Philadelphia), Omana Mathew (Philadelphia) and Molly Rajan (Kottayam). She was born and raised as a devote Christian and she upheld her strong Christian faith until the day she attained eternal glory.
Pennamma got married to Mr. Kaithottathil Koshy (Pappachan), son of the late Mr. Varghes Kaithottathil and Mrs. Mariamma Varghese, Kaithottathil House, Nariyapuram, Kerala, on April 26, 1971. They are blessed with two daughters Vyi and Aji, and one son Anish K Koshy; son-in-law Monson Varghese, son-in-law Saji Varghese, daughter-in-law Shie Anish.
They were also blessed with six grandchildren: Melna Monson, Eben Monson, Diya Saji, Ditty Saji, Aaron Anish and Nehemiah Anish.
Pennamma migrated to the United States in November 2000. She worked at Cardone Industries for 12 years. She was an active member of Philadelphia Full Gospel Assembly. She was well known for her innocent loving heart and her random selfless acts of kindness towards others which makes her departure that much more heartbreaking. She held onto the biblical spiritual values until the end of her life. Her happiest moments were when she spent time reading the Bible, preaching and praying.
She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother. Her beautiful smile and loving nature will never be forgotten. Although she has departed from us, all her memories will be nourished in our hearts forever. We will miss her dearly and look forward to the day that we will meet again.
