Marvin "Tim" Timothy Mitchell

Tim was born on May 16, 1954, to Marvin E. and D. Patricia Mitchell in Wenatchee. Within a year, the family moved to what is still the family home in East Wenatchee. Tim grew up with an older sister, younger brother and a gang of neighborhood friends doing all the things kids of the 50’s and 60’s did, bb gun fights, riding bikes, tote gotes, motorcycles, horses and snowmobiles, waterskiing and playing baseball. He was joined, much later, by a younger brother. Tim was taught by his father the art and joy of hunting and fishing, how to build anything and to be a great mechanic, which Tim shared with his son, Adam. Tim shot his first elk when he was 14 or 15 years old. As a teenager of the ‘70’s, Tim had many muscle cars and hot rods that he worked on, raced around and burned off in, in front of Eastmont High, joined by his brother, a cousin or two, and friends. While in school, he played baseball on the Rock Island team and later with league teams in the valley. After graduating in June of 1972, for a short time, Tim worked at the feedlot near Quincy. From there, he went to work at Pybus Steel until they closed in the early ’80s. While at Pybus, Tim learned the skill of welding and became certified in many types of welding. After Pybus closed, he went to work for Selland Construction and then Chelan County as a mechanic and welder where he could fix or weld anything, earning the name ‘MacGyver’. Tim married Carrie Yamamoto in June of 1982 and had four children, Adam, Sierra, Georgia and Clint. Tim was able to spend so many enjoyable and special times with Adam and family, as well as his immediate and extended family, loved ones and friends, sharing his humor and vast knowledge. Tim will be greatly missed by all. Tim was preceded in death by his grandparents, his mother, Pat, niece Terri Sehorn and brother-in-law Gary Sehorn. Tim is survived by his son, Adam, daughter-in-law, Candace and grandson Matthew, his father, Marvin, sister DeVonna Sehorn, brothers Steve (Bobbie) and Harold (Jessica) Mitchell, nephews Jeff (Janelle) Sehorn, Eric (Nicole) Mitchell, Chase Grebb and Wyatt Mitchell, nieces Megan and Skylar Mitchell and great nephews Travis Escalera and Jace Bollinger.
