Charles H. Mitchell

November 19, 1938 - July 15, 2026

In loving memory of Charles H. Mitchell (Mitch)

On July 15, 2026, of Palm Harbor, FL. Beloved husband of the late Mary (nee Doyle). Also survived by his first wife, Kathleen Mitchell. Devoted father of the late Colleen Kibler (the late Richard), Kim Griffith (Bill), the late Michael Mitchell, Laura Flaiano (Fabrizio), and Linda Mitchell. Loving grandfather of Rick, Kelley, Jamie, Corrin, Frank, and Samuel. Proud great-grandfather of 10. Dear brother of Daniel Mitchell (Nancy), Barbara Mitchell, and the late Joanne Haas, and many nieces and nephews.

It is with love and gratitude for a life well lived that we announce the passing of Charles H. Mitchell (Mitch), who passed away at the age of 87.

Born and raised in Philadelphia, PA., Mitch carried with him the values of hard work and dedication throughout his life. It was in South West, Philadelphia that he met and married his first wife, Kathleen Mitchell, with whom he shared 33 years of marriage. Together they moved to New Jersey, where they built a loving home and raised their five children.

A hardworking provider, Mitch dedicated 30 years of service as a Lineman with the Philadelphia Electric Company before retiring. Never one to shy away from hard work, he also owned and operated a successful boat hauling company for many years, combining his entrepreneurial spirit with one of his greatest passions.

The water was where Mitch felt most at home. An avid boater throughout his life, he found joy, peace, and adventure on the open water, creating countless memories with family and friends. Later in life, he discovered another passion – the game of golf. After relocating to Florida, he fulfilled a dream by purchasing a home on a golf course, where he spent many happy days enjoying the game. The friendships he formed there became deeply meaningful, and his golfing companions quickly became an extension of his family.

Mitch married his second wife, Mary Doyle in 1993. They shared 14 years together until her passing. Their marriage brought him additional companionship, happiness and cherished memories that remained close to his heart.

Above all, Mitch will be remembered as a loving father, grandfather, friend, and neighbor. He was known for his strong work ethic, his love of the water and the golf course, and his ability to make lasting friendships wherever life took him.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Mitch’s memory may be made to Homeward Bound Pet Adoption Center.

Mitch’s life will be honored and remembered privately by his family.

What a wonderful tribute the family has given. Dan would love hearing from Chuck and myself loved talking with this very special brother in law on the phone from Florida to Arizona. Will always remember is sweet voice and laugh. His kind thoughts to my daughter Jaine and son Rich who are filled with sorrow of his passing. He is among the "angels" in heaven. God bless

So many fond memories of Uncle Chuck, always laughing and affectionate, and quick with a dollar to go buy candy at the corner store. A life well-lived, indeed.

Mr.Mitchell (my parents insisted I call him this) he hated it and said call me Chuck. He was good friends with my Dad Charles. He rented dock space from him in his retirement and they enjoyed many stories and boat rides together. They would catfish off his dock and had a contest every year…biggest catfish. My Dad was good friends with him and visited him every day. I know he made my Dads retirement more enjoyable every day, friends like Mr. Mitchell were hard to come by, they were lucky to have each other. Mr. Mitchell lived a long life, just like my Dad and I’m sure my Dad picked him up on a boat when he arrived on July 15th and they sped off into the sunset as they had many days on earth. Rest in peace Mr. Mitchell, and say hi to my Dad for me, we miss him terribly, as your kids and family will miss you.

My Deepest Sympathies go out the Whole Mitchell Family. I am a long time friend of Linda over 50 years of shared friendship.Many memories growing up at the Mitchell household in Bellmawr where I remember Mr Mitchell commanding his undeniable presence at the head of the table !♥️🙏🏼 May he rest in peace after having lived a beautifully active life . My Sympathies…..
