I don’t remember the exact year that we met. But, I have so many years of fond memories celebrating one thing or another at Blythewood with Janet and the others in what I like to call the “Blythewood family”. So many laughs with that funny lady. I will miss her. To all of her family, my sincerely condolences and prayers. ✝

Thinking of all the times we exchanged summer visits in Nederland and Amite. Those were special memories I always looked forward to with Roy, Erline and the Mitchell family. I’ll never forget you Janet and my prayers are with your family at this difficult time.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved sister Janet Lynn Mitchell, who left this world peacefully on May 22, 2025. She was 66 years old
Janet lived life to the fullest and had enduring compassion for others. She had a beautiful soul which was evident to all who knew her, bringing warmth, laughter, and kindness into every room she entered.
Throughout her life, Janet embraced every moment fully. Whether traveling to new places, cheering on her favorite team, or gathering for a family meal, she infused everything she did with passion and heart. She was a treasured sister and favorite aunt to all her nieces and nephews.
She is preceded in death by her parents Roy and Erline Mitchell, her nephew Shaun Tycer, and longtime companion Al Buckner.
She is survived by siblings, Deborah O’Shee (Jerry), Linda Tycer (Dwain), Alan Mitchell (Kelley), Ronny Mitchell (Louise), Jason Mitchell, and numerous nieces and nephews.
She is also survived by Paige McVay (Ryan) who was loved dearly like a daughter and their children Lucy and Fisher who affectionately called her J-Maw.
A celebration of Janet’s life will be held on Thursday, July 17th at 12:00 Noon at Blythewood in Amite, LA with visitation beginning st 10:00AM.
