  1. My sincere condolences to the family of W.A. Mitchell (aka: Mitch) He welcomed me to Arthur G. Dozier School in 1970. He was a very kind and cooperative co-worker who always strived to do what was asked of him. He was always very quiet but exemplified great strength as he performed his daily tasks. I will miss Mitch. RIP Mr. Mitchell
