This memorial website was created in the sweet memory of my loving son, Matthew Mullis who was born on July 05, 1987 and passed away on November 11, 2006 at the age of 19 in an automobile accident. A senior in High School and an honor roll student for the first time in his life; he was going to walk across the stage despite all those who thought he couldn't and receive his hard earned diploma this year "2007". I hope to make that journey for him and envision him in my mind as I receive in his honor one of the many great accomplishments he made in this life; and later place upon his wall his so desired High School Diploma. At the age of 9 his sister introduced him to the world of "Low Riders". Wow he fell in love he would follow her to car shows, club meetings anywhere she would allow him to go. He also loved to drive in the mud from his 4-wheeler to every single vehicle he ever drove. Because of this his first car was a Land Rover which now sits quietly in the driveway bearing more dents than I can count. Never quite getting over what at a young age he had loved to do he bought himself his first low rider a 95 Bright Green Honda Civic. Later he would tell me mom with this car there is much work to do. He did get to attend Nopi this year and purchase a new front end. He was sure he could with this car inspire his sister again. Like many of his friends he was learning to play the guitar. He also loved computers from aim to myspace, and of course limewire where he would download his music.
He was happiest when surrounded by his friends. He was a generous, loving, silly, funny, searching for normal young man. He was my only son and most of all "My Baby". He was a true momma's boy. He has left behind so many that love him from me, his step-dad, his dad, his sister Jennifer, his step-sister Allison, his three step-brothers Joseph, Chase, Austin and his two beautiful nieces Ana and Britani God he loves them so much, his Grand-parents on both sides, his sweet girlfriend Hannah, Nancy and Greg Hannah’s parents, and his best friends whom it would take this entire page to list. He will live forever in our hearts. He is dearly loved in life and is greatly missed.
He left home with out premission while we slept at 2:00am, his step-father had even went to the trouble to block in the BMW roadster he had borrowed from his dad, but he came into our room while we slept and took our keys moved his step-father car and left. He went to a local resturant and meet up with friends and while on his way back home, just 2 miles from our house he apparently fell asleep at the wheel his car going 84 miles per hour became airborne and he wedged the car down in between some trees, the car was a convertible and he was not wearing his seatbelt he died from blunt truma to his head and neck. He was my only son I fell to my knees my life now and endless wreck from the words spoken to me by 2 police officers. I don't know how they perform their job having to tell a mother her son has died from the wounds of a car accident. I knew they were mistaken my child was in bed. I ran to his room opened up his door to find him gone from my life forever more.
