Mitchell lived a full and active life including scuba diving, fishing, hunting and camping. He felt most at home in the outdoors. He was best known for his smile, laugh and happy outlook. Mitchell took great pride in his work as he explored several careers, but he most enjoyed his time serving others as a general manager in the restaurant industry. Among all his interests his love for baseball and football would top the list. He played football for Clemson University on the 1981 National Championship Team. This accomplishment remained a cherished memory throughout his life. Two years before his passing and due to his failing health, he moved to Lake Wales from Cartersville, Georgia.
