Roger Dale Mitchell, born on April 28, 1954, in Louisville, Kentucky, left this world on October 8, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love and laughter that will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew him. He dedicated 33 remarkable years to Ford, showing unwavering commitment and resilience, before retiring at the young age of 50. This milestone allowed him to embrace life fully, exploring new passions and cherishing the moments that truly mattered.
Roger was a man of many talents, particularly renowned for his cooking, which he approached with the same passion he brought to life. To his wife Vicky, he was not just a partner; he was the embodiment of support and companionship—a faithful husband she cherished for an incredible 43 years. His delightful dishes were only surpassed by his warm heart and his infinite kindness that touched everyone around him.
A vibrant spirit, Roger loved to have a good time. He had such an infectious way of uplifting those around him with his exuberance for life and his genuine desire to help others. Whether it was spending weekends cheering on the University of Kentucky basketball team or watching the thrilling races of NASCAR, Roger brought his enthusiasm to every gathering, making each moment worthwhile and memorable.
Roger's warmth was matched only by the love he felt for his departed daughter, Mandy Mitchell. Though their time together was cut short, the bond they shared was indelible, and his memories of her remain a cherished part of who he was.
As we honor Roger’s life, we remember a man who filled his days with joy and made the world a brighter place through his laughter, love, and culinary prowess. Those who were fortunate enough to know him will forever carry his spirit in their hearts. He will be dearly missed but never forgotten, living on through the love he nurtured and the countless memories he created.
To honor Roger's wishes there will not be any formal services held.
