Monte, I always considered you as the grandseigneur of avionics and the mastermind behind the AEA. It has been a privilege knowing you.

My thoughts are with you Paula, Debra and the whole Mitchell family. God bless you.

Having recently lost one of our own family members, we know what a difficult time this is for you all but know that soon your grief will be replaced with all of your wonderful memories. Gone but never forgotten. Our thoughts are with you all. Warmest regards to you all.

Monte was a friend and supporter to many throughout his life, both in and out of the office. His legacy is best portrayed by the success of the people and organizations that he helped nurture throughout his life. Monte's dedication and loyalty to his family, friends and industry associates remained unwavering to the end. He will be missed!

I have always been proud and pleased to call Monty my friend. He will be missed.

Together at last with his beloved wife, but a great void in the lives of his family and all of us related to the Mitchell family. My Uncle Monte was a dynamo who could ignite an idea and inspire others...a characteristic he and Aunt Joann passed on to my cousins, their daughters. God Bless you and yours...Denise & Harry

Heaven became a sweeter place as Monte had his reunion with Joann and other loved ones. I am sure that Bob C. was close by to meet his long time friend and welcome him home. Our respect for Monte and all of the AEA family, not only helped us through the years, but also gave us many happy memories. My love and prayers to Paula, Debbie, Lisa and your families.

Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Mitchell, I am proud to be a small part of the large and successful organization that he was instrumental in creating.

Our sincere condolences to Paula, Debra, and family,
John and Evelyn Carr

Monte deserves recognition for his dedication to the industry and avionics sector. He was the face of AEA, a good man, and a professional.

Debbie, Paula and Lisa--you are all in my prayers. I learned so much from Monte. His dedication to GA Avionics was monumental, and he will be truly missed.

Monte was such a treat to know. His wife grew up across the street from my mother, Gloria Hahn Byam. When Mom moved to The Fountains, she and Monte were reintroduced and became table companions (when Monte wasn't attending an organization function). He was such a caring fellow and has followed up with Mom since her move to skilled nursing. Monte, we'll miss your calls. Peace be with you.

Monte - you will be missed by all you touched in the aviation community.

Paula...please know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Monte will be missed he created a wonderful organization "THE AEA"

My condolences to the Mitchell family

I first met Monty at the initial European meeting of the AEA. It was his obvious enthusiasm and integrity that encourage me to join. He dedicated himself to the organisation and this dedication was clearly passed on to his family who continue to make the organisation prosper. Monty you had a great life, wonderful family, great achievements and many friends. You will be sadly missed.

"When we first joined AEA and went to our first convention we had the privilege of meeting Mr. Monte Mitchell for the first time. He made us feel welcome and made it a point to check in with us during the convention. He left a lasting impression.
Our condolences to the Mitchell family during this difficult time."

To my best friend Paula and the entire Monte Mitchell family -
May the many wonderful memories of Monte comfort you in the days ahead. Monte was a dear dear man who always had a great sense of humor! He will be missed by all.
Love,
Carla

Paula, Debbie, Lauren and the entire family - my thoughts and prayers are with you on the loss of Monte.

I had the priveledge of meeting and knowing Monte very early in my career in aviation - what an inspiration!  His vision and leadership built the foundation of what the AEA has become today.

I was very saddened to hear the news about Monte. I remember him and his good humour with admiration and remain richer for the experience of association. To Paula, Debra, Lisa and family, please accept my heartfelt condolences. Bless you.

I will personally mourn the passing of my friend Monte Mitchell, he was the major influence in me becoming deeply involved with the AEA and the creation of the South Pacific region and his legacy will continue.

I never met Mr. Mitchell, but from my association with his daughters, that was my great loss!

My family offers your family its deepest sympathies.We love you and we are praying for you.

<< Philippians 4:7 >>
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

I am so sad to hear that Mr.Mitchell has passed. It was a great pleasure to witness his life in brief when he received the AEA life time achievement award in 2007. What a man, what a visionary, what an international legacy he has left and what a wonderful family he has been surrounded by. Our best wishes to all during this difficult time from his AEA family in Australia.

Monte,
I/we are glad to have known you as the fine and humerous person you were. We will miss you.

We have lost a true icon of our industry. Monte was an AEA "Founding Father." Our deepest condolences go out to Paula and Debbie and the entire Mitchell family.
We certainly send loving thoughts in your direction at this time of great loss.

Always a gentleman and a good man! He will be missed by all. His legacy lives on with Paula and Debbie.

I am saddened to here of the passing of Monte. He treated everyone he knew with great respect and always had time to talk with you. He was always interested to learn what was new in the avionics business. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, I know they loved him very much.

Hard to know what to say -- such losses are always profound and infinitely sad... until the best of your memories take over and allow you to enjoy all the times you shared. Monte was a class act and a distinctive presence in an industry that is blessed with many such wonderful/notable folks -- and even amongst them all, he stood out. God bless...

I have never met Mr. Mitchell, but I know his granddaughter Lauren, and she loved him greatly. My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family.  All my condolences to everyone and I hope he is at peace.

I first met Monte in the early 1990s. He was working to establish a statute of repose for aircraft manufacturers (his efforts led to GARA in 1994 - a statute that permitted the revitalization of general aviation in America). Without Monte, the industry might not exist as it does, today; he will be remembered as an important leader in the avionics (and aviation) industry.

My thoughts are with you, it is tough to loose a loved one. Peace and Hugs to you and your loved ones, Barry
