 Mitchell, this will probably be the last things i can write on your wall and that just breaks my heart. I love you Mitchell, this should have never happened but it did and for that i am sooooooo very sorry to everyone. I cant stand the fact that you arent here any more and its killing me slowly every single day. I just keep telling myself "I have to make it through the day for Mitchell," or "Do it cuz Mitchell cant" Mitchell, i miss you so much words cant even start to describe my pain i feel. but words cant describe how much we have all learned from you and how happy you made us with your time here on earth. Mitchell we had our downs, we fought, blocked each other, broke up, but when i look back on it we had more smiles and laughs. You always made me smile and laugh and at the end of every "down" came a "up" and we never gave up on each other and we never stopped loving each other. Mitchell, i wish you were here, i would do anything to see you again, one more time. I miss you sooooooooooooo much. and i love you sooooooo much Mitchell, sooooo much. I guess this is our last goodbye Mitchell. I will never forget you, i love you. RIP

Owen, Mitchell, Kyle, Teddi, Miranda

Middle school - there were always neighbourhood kids in our drive way waiting for the school bus.

The bus stop kids.

This was the first day of kindy for Austin. Mitchell was full of advice for his little brother and looked after him on the bus.

Mitchell and Tucker at the cabin.

Tucker and Mitchell became friends in Elementary school and spent a lot of time together over the years.

Mitchell loved the Lord and was actively involved in Church and Youth Group.
