He met his wife Susan, in 1996 in Bagdad. They then married in July of that year. Mitch was retired and Susan was still working in Bagdad, so they settled there until 2005. When Susan retired, they then moved to Kingman, Arizona.
Mitch, or Mike, as his family called him, loved gardening, tinkering in his shop and making jewelry. He had a shop on Etsy, “Foxaz” and enjoyed being creative. He enjoyed going to Laughlin and going fishing at Willow Beach.
