Joan and Dave I am so sorry to hear about Mitchell. You are in our thoughts and prayers. He was a wonderful boy who I had the privilege of sharing memorable years together. I loved sharing Pokémon information and Jimmy John turkey subs. He will always have a special place in my heart. Sending love and hugs.

Joan & Dave, When I think of Mitchell I remember how much he loved Spiderman movies back when I drove him home from Crestwood MS! He could always make me smile! May God's Peace surround you. Sara Karsten
