Muskogee mourns physician Dr. Virgil Matthews dies at age 89, more than 8,000 babies later By Donna Hales and Cathy SpauldingPhoenix Staff Writers A celebration of Matthew’s life is planned for 11 a.m. Thursday at St. Paul United Methodist Church with the Rev. Bill Bailey and U.S. Sen. Tom Coburn, M.D., officiating.
He said recently, “The success in my life is my wife (Carolyn) — she’s a doll.” He was still going to the health clinic to see “poor people” two days a week, and his wife of 63 years was driving him until mid-March. He leaves behind his wife; son, Stephen Matthews; son and daughter-in-law Robert and Mary Beth Thompson; daughter and son-in-law, Carole and Mike Ashby; daughter-in-law, Ann Matthews; eight grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren; his brother and sister-in-law, Robert and Elwyn Matthews. He was preceded in death by his parents, his sisters, Betty Thompson and Jean Bolton and his son Richard Matthews. Reach Donna Hales at 684-2923 or dhales@muskogeephoenix.com.
