We are so shocked to read of our dear friend & neighbor Mrs. Mitchell. Since moving onto the same street, we have always had a fond friendship for one another. We adored her husband, as we did her, and will miss her dearly.

Our condolences go out to her entire family.

Sincerly,

I would like to share my deep condolences, with Felice's family. My grandfather thought the world of her. He along with our entire family bought the newspaper from Felice for many many years now....She was always loving and a joy to be around. We thought of her as our extended family. She will be greatly missed but we know she is an angel up above with our heavenly Father.

Sincerly,
Frank & Rosa Baeza and Greg & Gina Rodriguez
