Robert Richard Mitchell

ST. IGNATIUS — Robert Richard Mitchell died Sept. 16, 2006, in an automobile accident.

Bob came into this world on May 12, 1980, and grew up in the Marion and Columbia Falls area. He graduated from Columbia Falls High School and later moved to Hot Springs, where he would meet his future wife, Jenifer, make their home there.

Bob loved to hunt, fish, hike and camp. He loved the outdoors and being with friends. His friends were his extended family and made up for those he did not have. Bob's smile was infectious and made even brighter by his dimples. He was a true joy to be around.

Preceding him in death were his grandparents; his father, Thomas Mitchell; and in-laws, Anne and LeRoy Manning.

He is surviving by his wife, Jenifer Mitchell in Hot Springs; adopted parents, Roy and Trudy Aycord of Paradise; adopted grandparents, Dale and Elda Greeno, and several close friends, David Swope, Vince and TJ Morker of Lonepine, Tootie and Punk Burgess of Camas Prairie, Corey Lindway of Plains and Kara and Kaniela Ilac of Hot Springs.

Even though Bob didn't' have immediate family, he was loved and cared for by many. He may not have realized how much, but in the numbers of those sharing their condolences, it was many. Bob will be greatly missed.

Funeral services were held Wednesday, Sept. 20, with Foster & Durgeloh Funeral Home of St. Ignatius in charge of arrangements.
