With sorrow we announce the passing of our loving and beloved father, patriarch and Kupuna, Lt. Col. Robert L. Mitchell, PhD ED, departed this earth on 9 October 2022, at 94 years young. He spent his life giving more than receiving, and while modest about his accomplishments, he was proud of his family and loved them all. Born in Lynn, Mass, he served in the Army in WWII, the Air Force in Korea and Vietnam. He held a MSEE and a PhD Ed, though he spent most of his life teaching in one form or another, last at Radford HS. He retired in Hawaii, returning to the family's historic home in Chester, Nova Scotia often.
He is survived by his son Robert B., daughter Sandra D. (husband Robert Chang), grand- daughters Sierra and Laura, niece Laurie Miller, nephew David Mitchell, cousins Mike and Chrissy Coolen, and numerous other kin on both coasts, plus many friends all over the globe.
Aloha 'Oe, farewell & adieu, until we meet again. We love you, miss you, and you will forever live in our hearts.
Service to be held at Punchbowl, Nov. 25, 1 PM.
