Masayoshi “Maco” Matsumoto ’92
Masayoshi “Maco” Matsumoto, 49, of New Haven, Conn., passed away unexpectedly on August 16, 2019, at home. He was born on January 4, 1970, in Tokyo, Japan, and was the son of the late Hiroaki and Yukiko (Endo) Matsumoto. Matsumoto ’92 was loved by many including his brother Yoshiaki Matsumoto of Japan; his partner of nearly 10 years Frank Stellabotte; and his canine companions Pico, Lula, and especially the late Louise Piccolina. Matsumoto graduated from Clark College and studied harpsichord and piano at the Conservatory of Grand Avignon.
He began his career at the Virgin Megastores of Tokyo prior to moving to his second home, Los Angeles, where he was employed by JTB International for over 15 years. Most recently, he worked for the Kitano Hotel and Rakuten of New York City. Matsumoto enjoyed learning new languages and traveling throughout the globe where he made lifelong friends wherever he went. He was also passionate about Ho’oponopono, the Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness.
