The world has lost another "Mitsch Man" How tragic for all of us. What a wonderful role model Uncle Bob was for all of us of: kindness, strength and humility, so many of the characteristics that our world is lacking these days. We are so thankful to Aunt Joan and Uncle Bob for all the support and love they have showered on us throughout all of our lives. We feel blessed that there are many generations of this extended family to follow in Bob's footsteps. With much love,
The Mitsch Family from Michigan,
John, Mary, John, James and of course Jessica

Uncle Bob was without question one of the most gentle and kind persons we've ever known. We will stand with friends and family as volleys are fired, Taps is played, and he is honored for his service to God and Country.
