Featured Obituary:

Barry J. Mitchell, beloved husband of Carol, nee Hohenadel; loving father of Meg (Scott), Dan (Melissa) and Tim (Sarah); proud grandfather of Caroline, Mitch and Mary Kate Humphrey and Declan Mitchell. Other surviving loved ones include two brothers, a sister, and many cherished cousins, nieces and nephews.

Barry J. Mitchell, age 74, of Lake Forest, IL, passed away peacefully on October 29, 2020. He was taken much too soon from complications of Covid-19.

Barry was born in Chicago on March 29, 1946 to Daniel and Frances (Greene) Mitchell. He treasured his family above all else and was married to the love of his life, Carol, for over 51 years. He was a devoted father, Papa, uncle and friend. Nothing brought him more joy than being with his family, especially attending his grandchildren’s sporting events and activities.

Barry was a faithful Catholic and took great pride in his Catholic education spanning from kindergarten through college (St. Francis Xavier in Wilmette, Loyola Academy and St. Norbert College). He was blessed with life-long friendships from these schools that he deeply appreciated. He was also very proud of his Jesuit education and the 4th generation of family now attending “The Academy” as he fondly called Loyola. Throughout his life, Barry embraced the Ignatian ideal of a “Man for Others.” He was a strong proponent of the Cristo Rey model of providing no cost, top-notch Catholic college preparatory education to young people with limited income and educational opportunities. With much passion, he volunteered at Cristo Rey St. Martin College Prep in Waukegan, happily giving his time, talent and treasure to recruit Fortune 500 companies for funding and entry level corporate jobs for students.

Barry enjoyed a long and accomplished career helping build one of the most respected manufacturer representative firms in the Midwest. While he was legendary for being a fearless and tough competitor, his success lied in his tireless work ethic and the deep care he put in his relationships with customers, principals and partners throughout the electronics industry. These strong bonds and friendships lasted into retirement, and countless past colleagues sought out Barry’s advice and business acumen.
