Mitchel was born on June 19, 1981, in Moline, IL, the son of Brian E. and Janet M. (Romanowski) Magee. He married Courtney Pysson on November 20, 2004, at the Orion United Methodist Church. At the age of 17, he began washing cars and worked his way up at various car dealerships in the area, eventually being promoted to General Manager. He was dedicated to his job and would spend hours researching vehicles and his work. He was a member of the Orion United Methodist Church. Mitchel had an adventurous spirit and enjoyed fishing, cliff diving, and was an overall sports enthusiast. He liked collecting rare items, extremely exotic food, and traveling, especially staying at his “home away from home”, Trump International Hotel & Tower in Chicago. He was always well put together and you would never find him with a hair out of place. Mitchel was a history buff and was always good for a laugh. Mitchel adored his grandparents. He was a modest leader and protector, and his family and friends were incredibly important to him. The “Golden Child” will be missed.

Survivors include his parents, Brian & Janet Magee, Lynn Center, IL; siblings, Morgan (Brad) Ainsworth, Grimes, IA, Mason (Abby) Magee, Orion, IL, and Merrick Magee, Des Moines, IA; maternal grandfather, Richard Romanowksi, Orion, IL; nieces, Harper Magee, Ava Ainsworth, Charlee Magee; nephew & Godson, Cash Ainsworth; and his extended family and wonderful friends.

He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Earl & Mardell Magee and maternal grandmother, Linda Romanowksi.
