Mr. Mizener was so nice and friendly to me. All about high school sports. Great respect, and sincere condolences to the Mizener family. Loved this man.
The voice of DGS Football and the heartbeat of South Mr Mizener has passed. He loved DGS and our community. Words cannot express the sadness we feel and the loss of man who bled blue. Thank you Mr. Mizener you are a legend. You will never be forgotten.
