Mary Katherine Mitchell Sampson
October 1, 1964-May 19, 2023

Mary spent her life living it to the fullest. She loved spending time with her daughters and spending the weekends at the river, with her best and closest friends. Along with being a retired motorcycle enthusiast, she enjoyed fishing, dancing, listening to live bands, reading, and recently picked up a love for crafting.
She is survived by her daughters, Dawn Stultz (Mark Booker), and Stevi Tant; her granddaughters Jocelyn Hegamyer, Chelsey Carter, and Laila Welch; her brothers, David Mitchell jr (Teresa Mitchell) and Tommy Mitchell, and sister Patricia Decheubel (darrell decheubel); her nieces and nephews – Joy N. (Matt) Laurae L. (Davis) John M. Austin D. and Courtney D.; and her loving boyfriend who stayed with her until the end, Wayne Bishop.
The family will be holding a Celebration of Life at the Richmond East Moose Lodge in Mechanicsville on July 8 from 4 PM to 8 PM.
Reach out to Dawn or Stevi for any questions.
Mary was a kind soul and my best friend. She and I have been great friends for over 20 years or longer. I will always be there for your daughters and will miss you so much. Until we meet again on the other side, love ❤️ you!
I am so sorry. My heartfelt condolences to Mary’s family and friends.
Mary was the first person at the moose to come over and talked to me . She was the first to invite me to her place at the river. She always told you the truth about how she felt and I appreciated that about her . I will miss her so much. Her openness and smile will always be remembered in my heart.
Mary always had the brightest smile and made you feel like you had been friends for years. Her passing will be felt greatly. Many prayers and lots of love to her family and friends. Rest easy and be free, Mary.
