Description	:	Obituary Swea City ... Read More	Obituary Swea City February 25, 1943 Swea Cityans were stunned Monday morning by the announcement that Tom Mitchell had died at 4:20 a.m. of a heart attack. He had not been feeling his best this winter, and was away from his desk at the Rock Island station during the last month or six weeks. He had, however, been making daily trips to the station and working for short intervals. He had planned to return to work regularly Monday and G. W. Lindsey, relief agent, was making arrangements to leave. Tom became ill early Monday morning, the last attack lasting some 40 minutes. Funeral services, with the Rev. F. W. Whitford in charge are being held this Thursday afternoon at the Methodist church in Swea City of which he was a member and an official, and burial will be in a family lot at Garner. At the time of his death Tom was near his 61st birthday. He obtained his early education in the Rock Falls school, and was later graduated from a Mason City business college. During his residence here Tom took up the study of optometry, and passed state board in four states. He built up a lucrative business in fitting glasses outside of his hours at the railroad station. Besides his widow he is survived by three sisters and nine nieces and nephews. The sisters are Mrs. Wm. Hollister of Clear Lake, Mrs. C. E. Olden of Rock Falls and Mrs. John Stanley of Austin, Minnesota. No Swea Cityan ever lived who earned a better eulogy than Tom Mitchell. His generosity and humanitarian instincts were innate and not on the surface. His character is further emphasized by his love of children and animals. Not a kid passed by nor a dog wag his tail without a greeting from Tom. He was long a member of the Masonic lodge, as was his father before him. One of his cherished possessions is a Masonic apron his father handed down to him. Perhaps Tom's life can be summed up as well as any in the expression a Swea City farmer made on the street this week: "When a man dies you always try to think up the good things about him. In Tom's case it is all so."
