Mitt then bought his own truck and hauled grain and cattle until his retirement.
He was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Loyal.
Mitt had many interests, but especially enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, and being with his children and grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife, Fern, of Loyal; his children: Milt Jr. (Jill) of New Ulm, MN, Pete of Loyal, Rhonda (Ryan) Reddy of Spencer, and Tanya (Ryan) Pagenkopf of Loyal; 11 grandchildren; 18 great-grandchildren; two brothers: Dennis (Joyce) Fitzl of Willard, and Dick Fitzl of Loyal; one sister: Beverly (Ed) Lloyd of Pray, WI; nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
