Julie Denise Mitchell

Julie Denise (Linnemann) Mitchell, 60, of Tecumseh, Nebraska, passed away on Tuesday, December 9, 2025, at Bryan Health in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Julie was born on October 17, 1965, in Marysville, Kansas, the daughter of Jerry Linneman and Karen (Dittemore) Linnemann. Julie was a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend.

Julie enjoyed the simple things in life, collecting rocks, sewing, embroidery, coloring, gardening, and cooking. Whether it was watching a movie, playing a game, or even just having a quick chat, she cherished spending time with her loved ones. Above all, she loved her sons and grandchildren.

Julie will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.

Julie was preceded in death by her parents and her son, Jason Smith.

Julie is survived by her three sons, Jeremy Smith, Kelvin Mitchell, and Billy Mitchell; her three grandchildren, Wilder Mitchell, Richard Smith, and Trip Mitchell; and her four siblings, Linda Noller, Stan Linnemann, Rick Linnemann, and Travis Linneman
