COLUMBUS, NC -Frank Moffet Mitchell III ("Moff") passed away the evening of April 13, 2020, at Tryon Estates, Columbus, NC. He was born in Cambridge, Ohio, on April 17, 1933, to Dr. Frank Moffet Mitchell and Mary Mitchell. He was president of Key Club while in Cambridge High School and developed a lifelong appreciation of the woodlands, where he enjoyed trapping, fishing and hunting. In 1955, he graduated from Muskingum College, where he was a member of the Sphinx fraternity. Moff then served in the US Army and was stationed in Germany, which allowed him to visit most of Europe and cultivate a life of travel. After the army, Moff was employed with the Anixter Brothers in sales and in training of the sales staff. He lived most of his professional life in Chicago, where he and Carol Englehart were married in 1968. Their retirement years were spent in Lillian, AL, Brevard, NC, and Columbus, NC. In all of these places Moff was enthusiastically engaged in gardening, woodworking and church. Moff is survived by his wife Carol; his two daughters (by his first wife Bobbie Anthony) Stacy (Todd) Seligman and Marcy (Steve) Perini; his grandchildren Emily Seligman, Patrick Seligman, and Victoria Seligman, Christopher (Vanessa) Perini and Jonathan Perini; and his brother Dr. James Mitchell (Dr. Bradford Colegate).
