George S. Mitchell, 81, husband of Mae J. (Miller) Mitchell, passed away on Tuesday, June 18, 2024, at Reading Hospital.
Born in Pottstown, he was the son of the late William Herbert Mitchell and Anna Mary (Heston) Mitchell.
George was an avid hunter since he was 12 years old. He loved watching the Philadelphia Phillies, loved dogs (always had one in the household as a family pet), and was a good family provider as a carpenter building houses. George also enjoyed bird watching, played baseball in high school and later on the church team as an adult, and was on a bowling team every week when he was younger.
Surviving along with his wife Mae of 61 years, is his son G. Samuel, husband of Gina (Tascione) of Birdsboro; daughter Sherrie L. (Mitchell), wife of Allan Drumheller, of Upper Pottsgrove; grandchildren Scott Mitchell, Tricia Mitchell, Dexter Drumheller, husband of Ashley, and Lyndsay Schlegel, wife of Matthew. He is predeceased by his brothers W. Jesse Mitchell and Owen F.; and his sister Shirley A.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday, July 13, 2024, at 2:00PM at Trinity Church (250 Swinehart Rd, Boyertown, PA 19512). Burial will be held privately by the family at a later date.
