Mr. Mitchell was born in Millsboro, DE to the late John H. Mitchell Sr. and Effie M. Dickerson Mitchell. In addition to his parents he is preceded in death by a son who died in infancy, as well as three brothers, Arthur Warren, Kendall T. Warren and Donald Warren.
Samuel was a retired farmer for Townsends'. He was a member of the Salt Water Cowboys in Chincoteague, VA. Samuel enjoyed hunting, fishing, and horseback riding. He was known to be very cantankerous and opinionated, and a real character. You got it straight on - no stabbing in the back.

Mitchell of Milford; a sister, Anna Lee Hudson (Terry) of Dagsboro, DE; two brothers, John H.
