The excitable Scott Mitchell will be sorely missed. Always pushing to higher pursuits, whether it was in the class room or on the cross country course. The man who taught me to never look at what the other guy was doing, but to do my best. The man who taught me the importance of words.
You have been a right star in my memories. We love you Scott!
May the Lord forever wrap you in His arms.
Kevin Mills, '75 NRHS
Mr. Mitchell:
A man who inspired me over 25 years ago. What a wonderful and beautiful person he was. He will never EVER be forgotten.

Mr. Mitchell will be missed - he was a wonderful influence on my oldest daughter. He had a fantastic knowledge of Shakespeare and made class very interesting for her. My deepest condolences to his wife, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Rest in Peace, Mr. Mitchell..... I was just sharing memories of you last week when I watched Hamlet with my husband. You are the reason I have a lifelong love of Shakespeare - your enthusiasm, passion and the fun you infused into teaching English literature fueled my interest and kept me always in attendence. My condolences go out to your family....
To all the Mitchell Family; Your Dad was a person who always welcomed you in his life as a friend. He liked to talk and people liked to listen. He took his acquired grandchildren and loved them as much as he loved all the grandchildren his own children had given him. He always had a smile for you when you walked in and a hug for you when you left. My prayer's and hugs go out to all of you. Kathy Peterson Fetzer and Family.
I was blessed to have Professor Mitchell as my teacher my sophomore & senior year. Mr. Mitchell taught class with an enthusiasm that could only be equated to that of the Dead Poets Society. My heart goes out to his family for their loss of a great man, husband, father and grandfather. Mr. Mitchell you will always be my Captain.
Mr. Mitchell, you were my favorite teacher and you made every class an adventure. You made this non-scholastic student actually pay attention to every word you said. Your passion became my passion. You were the best. You will never be forgotten! Your stories, your excitement and your teachings will live forever! God bless you!
Fond memories of celebrations shared for holidays, birthdays, and special times with Scott and his family. His kindness, welcoming smile and sharing with joy the special day will long be remembered. He will be missed at these special times.
We are deeply saddened and send our deepest sympathy to his family
The Banks family
