David Allan Mitchell, 79, was called to his heavenly home on Thursday, August 14, 2025 in Yukon, OK. He was born on January 27, 1946 in Oklahoma City, OK to James D. and Betty J. (Jackson) Mitchell.

David moved to Yukon in 1997 and worked for the United States Postal Service as a mail carrier, retiring after 30 years of service. In his spare time, he enjoyed fishing, playing his trumpet, and had a deep interest in entomology.

He was preceded in death by his parents, James D. and Betty J. Mitchell.

David is survived by his wife, Annie Mitchell; son, Garry Mitchell; daughter, Laura Hickman; sons, Kevin Mitchell and Roy Mitchell and wife Jill; 13 grandchildren; 4 great-grandchildren; and his brother, Daniel Mitchell.
