Paulding Co. deputies were dispatched to a home in the 500 block of Warrenton Drive last year after receiving multiple 911 calls to the area.

When deputies arrived, they found Mitchell lying on the driveway just outside of the garage of the home.

He had suffered from multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Sunday marks the one-year anniversary of Mitchell’s death.

He was a Marine Corps veteran, was known to many as a contractor in the metro Atlanta area, a  hard-worker, and a family man.
