Mia Mitchell Zittell

Although we only worked together as writers at the ad agency for a couple of years, I still think of Mia often. She had a wonderful laugh and we certainly needed that in our projects. When Mia decided to leave Wichita and move to California, I invited everyone at the agency to a big dinner celebration.

I grew up with Mia in Wichita, KS. Our fathers worked together for many years and our families spent many Sunday afternoons in College Hill Park when we were young. She was smart, creative, and kind. My sympathies to her family and friends.

She was such a witty, warm, talented person. I am shocked and sad to know her light is gone from this world. My deepest sympathy to family and friends.
