To the Fickes family, words can not express my shock and grief over the loss of Mitch. Your family has been in my thoughts and prayers the past few weeks.
Mitch and I worked together and he was one of the best, caring and competent supervisors I had during 28 years at the USPS. He was one of my fellow co-workers who really touched my life. I will forever remember him jumping down off the planter on his way home in the morning, taking long strides toward his motorcycle with his helmet in his hand. He always had time for a word as I was sitting there on my last break.
Mitch will be greatly missed by his family, friends and co-workers.

To the Fickes Family - saddened by your loss. Mitch and I worked on the LSM years ago. As a former Union Steward, Mitch and I had many talks. Mitch and I also talked about Hockey during the season. Even though I have moved on to days, whenever i would pass Mitch he always had a kind word or said hello. David Kalandyk

To the Fickes Family, My heart was so
saddened to hear about Mitch. He used
to work with my husband Ray Adams, and
I remember him as such a great guy. I lost Ray in October from Cancer, I want to know my prayers are with you.

Please take our friend Mitchell & his family into the sweetest corner of Your soul, the most tender place in Your heart; that they may be comforted. The cord that binds us, one to the other cannot be severed, surely not by death. For death is not Your master, nor mine. Amen.
