Mitch grew up in Albion, New York and graduated Albion Central High School in 1978. He was the kind of guy who made friends easily and had many close friends. Mitch was a natural athlete and enjoyed playing softball in multiple leagues as well as being an accomplished bowler and golfer. He insisted on living life to the fullest. He was an enthusiastic assistant scoutmaster for Troop 149 and was an proud Eagle Scout. In the spring of 1980, Mitch relocated to Kissimmee Florida. Mitch made many friends in Florida and enjoyed a twenty five year career working at Disney World in Orlando. Mitch kept busy after retiring from Disney rooting for the New York Yankees, and the Buffalo Bills. He also enjoyed NASCAR and vacationing pool side at resorts all around Florida. Though he loved living in the Sunshine State, he also loved reminiscing about growing up in the 70s and often said those were the best times of his life.

Mitch is survived by his loving companion of 26 years, Susan Grogan, who was the love of his life; sister Patty (Jane Hobson) Mitchell, brother David B. (Brenda West) Mitchell, nephews Joshua (Tristin) Mitchell, Brian (Cass Saint-Vil) Mitchell, Eric Mitchell, great-nephew Cooper Rho Mitchell; numerous lifelong friends in NY and FL.
