I guess I am writing this one to Joe up in Heaven Freeta, I have already posted on the guest book, but I have to say it again, I miss my buddy Joe so much, I thought he would live forever and I still can't believe he is not here, please call me if you need me anytime as I can understand how you are feeling since my precious husband Charlie passed away from a fire accident in his wheelchair July 14, 2010 - so Freeta and Family, I know just how you all are feeling right now, 24-7.....loving all of you so much.  June P. Gray retired from FDLE

Mrs. Fretta, as you know Joe is in heaven getting everything organized, as I quite know he will always find a way too do things his way, this is what I always loved about him, sometimes he would make me so angry, but it wouldn't be long he would have me thinking his way, God is a lucky soul to have joe joe with him

I will miss Joe very much, he was like a Brother to me.  You see, I was one of those "widows" he looked after.  He checked on me everyday.  If I hadn't called Fretta, He called me that evening.  Always wanted to know if I was allright and if I needed anything.  I had the pleasure of knowing Joe and Fretta since 1960 and watched their family grow.  I am truly Blessed !See You soon, Joe!!

Fretta and Family:
It was an honor and joy to have known Joe and worked with him at FDLE.  I will never forget our times together.  We are so sorry for his passing but know he is out of pain and in a much better place.  God Bless.
Joe and Imogene Baker

I'm very sorry to hear of Joe's passing. He was a wonderful friend and a great person.

We are so sorry to hear of Joe's passing, but know he is now with our Heavenly Father.  We extend our deepest sympathy to dear wife Frietta & children.  Oral & Susie Woods, San Antonio, Fl

Mr. Joe was a wonderful person. He will be missed.

What a wonderful celebration of Joe's life over the past two days.  He will be missed by so many but the peace of where he is and to know he is painfree is comforting.  As his son told us, "Our loss is God's gain"!  We love you all so much and pray that you are comforted by the love that surrounds you.

Joe was a close friend to  Ray and our family, we will miss him, but he and Ray are walking the streets of gold today.

Praying for the friends and family during this time. Thankful Joe is in the arms of  our precious Lord Jesus. Joe was a very special man. Love to the family and friends today.   Becky loved JB and thought a lots of him .

All the Mitchells and extended families.
"let's go", "come with me and.....","if we finish here, we can go....".  we called him Seargent because he was truely the man who was always wanting to do for others.  we learned from Joe the christian way to "have fun", at work or at play.  we miss him and will be happy in his ongoing because that's the way he would want it.  We love you all.

What a fine man Joe Mitchell was and is!  Always a loving smile  to give to others.  Always making you feel that you were the most important person in the world when he spoke with you.   When I think of Joe it puts a smile on my face.  Our thoughts and prayers to the Mitchell family, may your many happy memories of Joe give you comfort during this time.
Frank and Susie Mozolic

To the family of Joe Mitchelle, thank you for sharing this wonderful man with the law enforcement community for all those years.  Joe was indeed a great man and will be sorely missed by all.  During Joe's military service in Desert Storm, we corresponded and what a pleasure to receive a letter from Joe!  A great sense of humor, and a pleasure to be around, what ever the circumstance.  For each of you, hold on to those great memories and know with all your heart that as Christians, we will be with Joe one great day!

Dad, you will forever be in our hearts. You would have been happy with your service today. We cried, we laughed, and your friends shared stories of the past 50 + years of how you touched their lives. You no doubt know, that you prepared us to be strong for this sad day. You did a good job. I never dreamed I could have such peace on the day of your passing. Yes, I am sad, as I have tear filled eyes typing this. But as I watched you slip away in those last 4 days, I could feel the peace building inside of me. For I knew you were headed for a place with no pain, and a new body, a perfect body, and that gives me great relief. You and I never said goodbye at anytime in our lives. It was always, see ya later, or talk to ya soon, or come see us, and usually followed by "Ace". I will not say goodbye now either, but I will say, See ya later Ace. We will meet again. I miss you my friend, and I have never been more proud to be called your Son. Love ya!!!

Our thoughts are prayers are with your family.  Dave & Karen Elyea

Wendy and Joe,Collin and Ashley,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you on this day and in the days ahead.

The Jack Duncan family of Sun City Center Florida sends condolences to the entire Mitchell Family.

Joe and Fretta were among a very few charter members of our church, in 1963.  They were a great help in developing the church ministries and always faithful to our Lord and loyal to me, their pastor.  I will never cease to be grateful for their active support of the church. They were always there. We all know that Joe is with our Lord now and far removed from sickness, pain and all the weaknesses of the flesh.  God bless you Brother Joe, Mrs Blair and I still and will always love you and your family. Psm.115:1 Rayburn and Bettie Blair.

Joe was a wonderfuil friend of our family and will be missed so much, Ray and Joe are walking the golden streets today, New Years Eve will never be the same, and the time we spent together.

Certainly Joe is missed already. As friends we share with you in sorrow at this time. However, in Christ, with you we celebrate his homegoing to Heaven.
You each are in our prayers.

So sorry to hear of Joe's passing.  I have many good memories of days long past in Tallahassee and Joe's always present friendly smile.

Dear Freeta and family,my heart aches with yours on the passing of our dear friend. We worked together several years during elections.Joe loved God and was not ashamed to tell anyone that would listen.He will be missed a long time. Love you all. Syl& Jean

Both of us learned to love you and your family more over these last months than we even did before Joe got so sick.  Jimmy thinks that Joe has left him with a task to fulfill in his absence-----ministry to the widows, etc of our church family !
Your family has been a great example of how Christians ought to act as we truly Celebrate the home-going of one who loved Jesus and knew where his eternal home is.  Many hugs to you all, Jimmy and Voncille

Dearest Freeta and Family, I am so sad...but happy that "my little buddy" is no longer in pain and suffering, he was such a dear friend of mine and I will never forget him...he loved to "bark orders" to me as always,,,,,but he was always there for me when I needed him.

We will miss him very much but I will never forget the times he would come in with contracts to Citifinancial when I was working there. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Every so often in life you have the privilege to know someone who is the "real deal";  a person who lived out his life in an unpretentious, authentic, and honorable way; one who practiced and lived out his beliefs, and was a true friend to all. Joe Mitchell was such a person. He will be missed.         Jerry and Linda Peters

We were so sorry to hear of Joe's passing but are cheered to know that he is in the presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. May the God of all comfort be with you at this time of loss.

Our Family's lives as well as many others were deeply enriched by Joe's presence. His love and tireless efforts will never be forgotten.
The Family of H.C & Lucille Lawson
