Mark Edward Mitchell's Obituary
Mark Edward Mitchell, a towering scruffy man of 59, passed away Thursday, April 15th of a stroke.
He left behind two children; a daughter and son; Skyler and Heather, siblings; Rex, Deward, Eric, Craig, Arlene, Karla, and Yvette, grandchildren; Dixie, little Mark and Adrian (pictured at age 3), and best friend; Devin. He has joined his mother Aleda, father Ed, and sister Beverly.
A kind hippie of a man, Mark always loved wearing sweatpants and tie dye shirts. He even affixed a piece of tie dye sheet to the roof of his old Mustang and was working on adding it to his pride and joy; a 1979 Ford F150 heavy half ton. He was a Machinist who kept a Machinist Handbook by his bed like a bible, and he had recently gone to school for welding. He was a private man who kept a lot to himself and played the role of both mother and father to his two children. He had many projects and loved collecting vintage things. He was a strange, wonderful man who always thought of others while pretending he didn’t care about anyone but himself. He is loved and will be missed by many.
