Mitchell moved to Elkhart as a teenager, and set to work. Always a hard worker, and having a strong work ethic, he retired from the Norfolk Southern Railroad after thirty years, while also working tireless years at Wright Construction, while farming in Southern Michigan as well. Although he was an extremely hard worker, he also took time to enjoy hunting, as a hobby.

Upon arriving to Elkhart, Mitchell met and married Ms. Shirley (Newsome), and they remained married for the next twenty-five years. Mitchell leaves behind his beloved children to cherish his memory.

Khalanie Jones, Tro'jhaun Jones, and Troy'vair Jones, who will also cherish memories of their Great-Grandfather as well.

The number of lives that Mitchell touched, have forever been changed. Although he has departed from this life, he has left a host of others, such as nieces, nephews, neighbors, and friends, who will smile, laugh, or share a memory, whenever they think about Mr. Mitchell Bramley Senior.

Although Mitchell has departed from this life, his memory will live on, through those who love, respect, and miss him dearly.
