Robert Mitchell Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by East Haven Funeral Home on Mar. 13, 2026.
Robert Justin Mitchell, age 58, passed away on March 12, 2026. He was born on October 27, 1967, in Angleton, Texas.

Robert was a hardworking man who spent many years as a skilled welder before retiring. He was known by many, but most proudly by the title he cherished most - "Papa." Robert loved his family deeply and found his greatest joy in spending time with his grandchildren, creating memories that will forever be treasured.

In his free time, Robert enjoyed being outdoors hunting and fishing, activities that brought him peace and happiness. He also enjoyed visiting the casino and playing the slot machines, always appreciating the excitement and fun that came with it.

Robert will be remembered as a devoted father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend who valued family above all else.

He is lovingly survived by his children:

Jessica Mitchell Garcia and her husband Frankie Garcia, Amber Mitchell, Robert Mitchell Jr., Megan Shriver and her husband Mitchell Shriver, and Krystal Killough.

Robert was the proud grandfather of eight grandchildren, who lovingly knew him as Papa.

He is also survived by his sister, Jerri Lynn Mills and her husband John Mills; his nephews Justin Mitchell and his wife Maggie Mitchell and nephews Troy Lee Mitchell Jr., and Jon Eric Mills; along with many extended family members and friends who will miss him dearly.

Robert was preceded in death by his parents, Pamela Mitchell and Jerry Mitchell, and his brother, Troy Mitchell.

Robert's legacy will live on through the love he shared with his family and the many memories they will forever hold in their hearts.
