Mitchell Jason Delgado

Mitchell loved life, his family, friends and work colleagues. He was a fair and decent young man who was saddled with opioid addiction after being prescribed after a snowboarding accident. Our lives are shattered.

There is no one favorite memory. Our family loved sports, good food, and travel. We have great memories of Saints games and family parties. Mitchell played sports all through school and loved Fantasy football with his squad. Mitchell graduated from FSU (Florida State) and was a die-hard Seminole fan. Big cities were his favorite places to visit. He marveled at the architecture, the local food scene and culture.

What will we miss? Every single thing. His voice, dog voice, laugh, humor, intelligence, and ability to debate any subject known to man. Mitchell was a good friend and inspiration to many downtrodden people, fellow addicts, and his family and friends. He encouraged people to dream big and helped them realize their value. Our grief over the loss of Mitchell is unbearable and we will miss him every waking moment of every day.

Mitchell would like to be remembered as a good, decent, caring, fair, and honest man. A lover of animals, especially dogs. A loyal and loving son and brother. The best friend any person could every ask for. A spiritual man who believed in God, prayed daily and got strength from his faith. He will be remembered for his gentle nature and beautiful smile.
