Linda Mitchell Obituary
Linda Kay Mitchell, affectionately known as Grandy, peacefully passed away Friday, September 19, 2025, in Powell, Ohio. She was born August 24, 1945, in Melrose Park, Illinois.
Linda graduated from Hammond High School in 1963 then attended Purdue University to study interior design and joined Pi Beta Phi sorority. She then married the love of her life and dedicated her life to caring for her family and friends while volunteering for her communities through Munster Community Hospital, Stephen Ministry, and a local Hospice Foundation. Known for her creative talents and artistic touch, she created beautiful homes and used needle and thread to expertly create beautiful clothing, quilts, and heirlooms. She will be deeply and profoundly missed by all the family and friends she touched with her gentle warmth.
Linda is survived by her devoted husband, John Edward Mitchell; daughter, Lisa (Eric Sullivan) and son, Curt (Amy); cherished grandchildren, Madeline and Matthew Sullivan (Powell, Ohio), and Lindsay (Salt Lake City, Utah) and Heather Mitchell (Las Vegas, Nevada).
She was preceded in death by her parents, James M. and Audry (Biles) Patterson and her brother, James M. Patterson Jr.
A gathering to celebrate Linda's life will be from 4-8 p.m. Thursday, October 9, 2025, at Schoedinger Dublin, 5980 Perimeter Drive, Dublin, Ohio 43017.
