Mitchell Delph Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Serenity Funeral Care on Jan. 30, 2026.
Mitchell Lee Delph, 77, of Union, Kentucky, passed away peacefully on Saturday, January 24, 2026.

Born on October 1, 1948, Mitchell was the beloved son of the late Bernard and Mary Delph. He was a man who found joy in the simple pleasures of life, especially spending time outdoors hunting and fishing-activities that brought him both peace and happiness over the years.

In addition to his parents, Mitchell was preceded in death by his brother, Preston Delph, and his sister, Sierra Egbers.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Theresa Coppage, with whom he shared 35 wonderful years of marriage; his loving sons, Chester (Sam) Delph and Chris (Christy) Delph; two cherished grandchildren; and one great-grandson, who brought him immense pride and joy.

Services will be held at the convenience of the family.
