Gary Lynn Mitchell, Jr. (Suge)

Gary Lynn “Suge” Mitchell, Jr., born on February 2, 1982, in Pineville, Louisiana and he passed away on September 11, 2024 in Marco, Louisiana, leaving behind a legacy of cherished memories.

Known for his remarkable mechanical skills, Lynn was able to fix just about anything that came his way. His passion for nice cars and trucks was evident, as he cherished every opportunity to work on automobiles. Additionally, he had a keen appreciation for music and was an avid sports fan, particularly devoted to the Dallas Cowboys. Lynn enjoyed a variety of hobbies and interests, including family gatherings, playing horseshoes, corn hole, cooking, and, of course, sharing meals with loved ones. 

Lynn found immense joy in spending time with his family. He was a proud father of four sons: Jordan, Kylar, Cason, and Eli, who were a source of joy and pride for him. He is also survived by his mother, Renee Rachal, his father, Gary Lynn Mitchell, Sr.; step-father, Richard Rachal, his brothers, Kirk Rachal and his wife Morgan, Sean Rachal and his wife Ariel, and Casey Rachal; and a sister, Brandi Mitchell; as well as his godmother, Wanda Miller, and godfather, Craig Rachal. Lynn shared a special bond with his best friend and cousin, Gary Miller. He was also a beloved uncle to nieces Heidi and Lydia and nephews Jeremiah, Maverick, Camdyn, and Kylan.

Lynn was preceded in death by his beloved grandparents, Dorothy and Ray Mitchell of Robeline, and Robert and Mable Rachal of Marco, along with his uncles, Don Miller and Dwight Rachal. 

Lynn's love for his family was matched only by his deep belief in God, which served as a guiding light throughout his life.
