To the Mitchell Family: I would like to extend my sincere condolences.I wanted to let you know that you and your family have our greatest sympathy and our heart is truly saddened. Mr. Mitchell was more than a wonderful person; he was very kind, very generous in heart and spirit.He too was like another dad to me, he was always there for everybody!! We know that his passing will not only leave a great void in our lives but also in the many hearts that had the priviledge of knowing him. May God grant you the comfort you need at this time through his Almighty Word as well as through the comfort of friends and family. Mr. Mitch touched all of our lives in ways that words could never even begin to utter or express but the touch of his presence though physically gone will remain within our hearts to time indefinite. If there is anything we can do to help you in anyway, please do not hesitate to call on us.Our sincere thoughts and prayers are with you.
With our deepest Sympathy,
Ms. Trista V. Wells-Baker & Ms. Betty L. Wells
