Andrew Adolph Mitchell Jr.

Andrew Adolph Mitchell Jr., beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away on Wednesday, December 4, 2024, at the age of 85. He was born on May 4, 1939, on Long Island (NY) to the late Andrew Adolph and Josephine Mitchell. Andy spent his entire childhood and most of his adult life living and working in the great town of Huntington that he loved so much.

Andy was a passionate fan of the New York Yankees & NY Giants and had a deep love for sailing, golf and history. Seconded only to being a grandfather, his greatest pride was his time as a football coach, a role that brought him much joy and fulfillment throughout his career. During his retirement years he enjoyed his time with Joyce and their many friends at LaGrange Baptist Church.

He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Joyce Clark Mitchell, and is survived by his son, Andrew "Andy" Mitchell (Christine); his grandchildren, Sam Mitchell, Hillary Mitchell, and Jack Mitchell; his sister, Marylyn Berkowitz; his brother, Joe Mitchell (Ann); and his sister-in-law, Barbara Wampler.

A visitation for Andy will be held Wednesday, December 11, 2024 from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM at Heady-Radcliffe Funeral Home & Cremation Services, 706 W Jefferson St, Lagrange, KY 40031, followed by a funeral service at 11:00 AM.
