On August 22, 1952 a kind and loving spirit was welcomed to this world. Ms. Elizabeth Mitchell was born to the late Mr. Emanuel Mitchell and the late Ms. Doshie Spencer.
Born in Sumter County, Georgia, she received her early educational training from the public school system. She later completed Certified Nursing Assistant Training at the Hollywood Hills Nursing Home.
Early in her life she accepted Christ and united with the Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in Cobb, Georgia. A dedicated member of the church, she served as a member of the choir and also was a member of the Program Committee.
Never a stranger to hard work, she was employed for over 40 years as a CNA. This was an example that she demonstrated as she took care of her children and grandchildren. She possessed a great love for cooking and flowers. A lover of people and a willingness to help all, never stopped her from “fussing.” Even when she realized no one paid her any attention when she fussed.
On Tuesday December 15, 2020, her earthly journey came to an end while she was a patient at the Medical Center of Central Georgia in Macon, Georgia. Along with her parents, she is preceded in death by a son, Mr. William Coffield; a brother, Mr. Leonard C. Spencer, Sr., and dear friend, Mrs. Ossie Smith.
Her life will forever be remembered by her loving and devoted children, Ms. Miranda (Charlie) Mitchell and Mrs. Earlene (Donnie) Mitchell Williams both of Americus, Georgia, Ms. Mary (Melvin) Mitchell of Cobb, Georgia, Mr. Michael Coffield of Hollywood, Florida, Mr. Mark Daniels, Jr. and Mr. Logan Tookes, Jr. both of Americus, Georgia; her stepmother, Mrs. Annie Clara Mitchell of Cobb, Georgia; her beloved grandchildren, Ms. Jameika Mitchell, Ms. Shanika Mitchell, Ms. Laporsha Tukes, Ms. Loquasha Daniels, Ms. Keandria Daniels, Mr. Bonny Merritt, Jr., Ms. Tierra Daniels, and Ms. Chy’darea Graham; her great grandchildren, Ken’nyiran Tookes, De’merriah Carter, Cha’sten Daniels, Caleb Daniels, Dalton Monts, Amiyah Frederick, Isaiah Frederick, and Adaela Hicks; her loving sisters, Ms. Beaulah Barner, Mrs. Dorothy (Walter) Bridges, and Ms. Sally White all of Americus, Georgia, and Mrs. Patricia (Phillip) Burrells of South Miami, Florida; her beloved brothers, Mr. Henry Spencer of Americus, Georgia, Mr. Daryl (Yumall) Clark of Miami, Florida, Mr. Tony Clark of Cobb, Georgia, and Mr. Victor (Barbara) Clark of Virginia; an aunt, Mrs. Emma Jones of Leslie, Georgia; a host of nieces and nephews, cousins, other relatives and many sorrowing friends, to include Mrs. Sydney Ruff of Cordele, Georgia, Ms. Charlene Merritt of Americus, Georgia, and Deacon Eddie Brooks of Cobb, Georgia.
