Cory Paul Mitchell passed away on January 19, 2026, in Ogden, Utah. He was born on July 23, 1988, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Bobby Mitchell and Jesse Yvonne Woodyard. On March 8, 2021, he married Cortney McClintock.

Cory cherished time with his family and had a deep love for the outdoors, fishing, road trips, and exploring new places. Music was his passion; he was a talented guitar player who even learned to build his own instruments, and he attended concerts and festivals whenever possible. He also enjoyed playing both board games and video games.

Cory’s greatest accomplishments were overcoming the odds he faced as a child and living his life with a positive spirit, spreading happiness to everyone he met. He was incredibly strong and loved deeply, striving to be the best version of himself every day.

He is survived by his wife, Cortney; daughter, Aidyn; fathers, Bobby and Eddie; grandparents, Rulon and Paula Harper and Wanda Davidson; siblings, Cody, Ryan, Tori, Jeremy, Josh, Jordyn, and Jericho; and nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts and uncles. He was preceded in death by his mother, Jesse.
