Craig Scott Mitchell left Hobart for Heaven on August 29, 2021 surrounded by family and friends at home.

Craig was born in 1954 to David and Patricia (Baker) Mitchell at Swedish Hospital in Minneapolis, MN. He grew up in Bloomington, MN attending John F. Kennedy High School.

His handiwork can be seen across 3 states including Texas with many landmarks and buildings in Hobart, many parks, schools and institutions and the OU stadium. He was a steadfast, hard worker and had a special ability to do or fix anything, including cars and spent many hours devoted to helping those who needed it.

Craig married Robyn (Metcalf) Mitchell in 1994 in Eureka Springs, Arkansas and moved to Hobart, OK in 1995 where they have resided since, raising four sons here. He was a member of First Baptist Church and later The Edge in Clinton, OK. He grew deep in faith, wisdom and prayer.
