Jones (Karen), of Houston, Texas; and his aunts, Elase Jones and Evelyn Jones, of Erie, Pa. and Priscilla Jones, of Mississippi. Also surviving is his best friend, Valarria Hollingsworth Freeman; with an additional special acknowledgment by the family given to Garry Williams, Sr.

Mitchell was the only one that could make me believe that my car was on a flatbed. That's just one of hundreds of pranks he pulled on me. His sense of humor was priceless. He was book smart, dollar smart, goal setter, and I won't talk about his SWAG. I LOVED MITCHELL. Kept my guts busting. Tammy, Mitch and sibblings you have my condolences. May the good Lord Comfort you all. In Jesus name I Pray AMEN
