It has been 10 years since the loss of Reagan County Deputy Josh Mitchell. Since his death, Big Lake and Reagan County have gone above and beyond in efforts to keep his legacy alive. From monuments, to the Josh Mitchell Park, from streets named in his honor, to scholarships for graduates. We remember the sacrifice Deputy Mitchell gave to this community, but most of all, we remember the impact he had on a daily basis as he proudly served the Reagan County Sheriff’s Department.
