Remembering Andrew Mitchell
To our Valued Customers and Friends,
It is with profound sadness that MOM’s Foxboro announces the loss of Andrew Mitchell on July 26th, 2018. Andrew had worked as a Service Technician at our store for more than 10 years, and was a highly respected tech with many of our customers and employees alike. Andrew specialized in Polaris ATV’s, Side x Sides and Snowmobiles, and was a Polaris Gold Certified Master Technician, but was skilled in working on all power sports vehicles. Andrew was a very close and dear friend and was considered part of our extended MOM’s family. Andrew started working for us as a teenager, and helped grow our small business into what we have become today. Many of our customers developed relationships with him over the years, appreciating his knowledge, his easygoing attitude, and his friendly demeanor.
We express our deepest condolences to Andrew’s family, many of whom have come through our shop the last few days to spend time with his coworkers and friends. We ask for your patience and understanding as we grieve, as well as transition from the loss of such a valued friend and co-worker. We will work hard to minimize any disruption on our service work, and we appreciate the customers we have spoken to so far who have been so accommodating.
