Carolyn Elizabeth

Mitchell

Ms. Carolyn Elizabeth Mitchell was born on July 3, 1944, to the late John Mitchell and the late Mary Lee Mitchell in Griffin Spalding County, Georgia. Carolyn accepted Christ as her Savior at an early age and was united with New Hope Baptist Church. Carolyn later moved her membership to Rising Star Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Gerod D. Duff.

Carolyn was known and loved by many. The character of her life spoke volume through her dedication to her family and friends. She gave whole heartily, while loving the simple things in life during her journey. Carolyn was employed by American Mills, and later became an employee of Dundee Mills for over 30 years. She later retired and dedicated the remainder of her life caring for her kids, grandkids, and those that truly needed her.

Mid evening one summer night the Lord responded well done my good and faithful servant, this battle is no longer yours. She entered into the joy of the Lord. At that moment Ms. Carolyn Elizabeth Mitchell received her wings on August 15, 2023.

Ms. Carolyn Elizabeth Mitchell leaves to cherish her memories her son, Michael Smith; three daughters, Anita (Freddie) Smith, Bridgette (Ronnie) Bass, and Alicia (Ocean) Gilliam; seven grandchildren, seventeen great grandchildren; her siblings, J. D. (Helen) Walker, Annie Lee Brittian, Sheila Mitchell, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends that will miss her dearly.
