April 1, 1939 - June 25, 2024
Is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of Graydon Mitchelmore. He passed with his daughter Jill by his side. Born April 1st to Thomas and Mamie Ellen. He was the eldest of 6 kids.
Graydon was devoted husband, Daddy, Grandfather and Great Grandfather. He was a family man and worked hard to provide for his family. He worked many years in Lab City where he was away from his family to provide for them and give them the best life possible. After retirement he liked to keep busy. He cut all his wood for the winter, tending his gardens, and kept his lawns nice and trimmed and working on anything that needed to be done. He took a lot of pride in everything he did.
He had a deep love of animals and passed that love down through his family. At times we think he loved the pets as much as he loved the rest of the family. He has returned to be with the love of his life and is now at peace.
He is survived by Son: Jasper; Daughters Jill and May; Grandchildren: Graydon (Tammy), Deanie, Michael, Tammy; Great grandchildren Darrius and Marcus; Sisters: Myrtle (Ren), Bertha, and Velma (Wally); Brother-in-laws: John Thomas (Winnie), Vincent (Jessie) and Marcelle (Eura). He will be missed by many of his furry grandkids, especially River.
He is predeceased by his wife Rhoda Susan, his son Dean, his grandparents George and Sarah, mom and dad Thomas and Mamie Ellen, Brother’s Maitland and Harvey. Sister-in-laws Millicent, Maisie and Mamie Ellen (Lambert).
