Peacefully at home in Halifax on July 14, 2010. Carmen passed away in the tender loving care of his wife of 63 years, in his 87th year.
Born in Hampshire, P.E.I., only son of Davis and Pearl (Easter) Mitchell.
He leaves to mourn his wife, Maxine (Salmond); son, Harvey (Marlene), P.E.I.; daughters, Elaine Taylor (Stephen), Dartmouth; Lorraine Perrott (Trent), Hatchet Lake; grandsons, Stephen Mitchell, Tyler and Luke Perrott; sister-in-law, Marilyn MacPhail.
Memorials gratefully declined.
Carmen's comfort and pleasure was the kindness of good neighbours, prayers, gifts, visits, phone calls and the many messages from his good friends in N.B., P.E.I. and N.S. You helped him more than you could ever know to endure his long cancer journey with patience and a smile.
Retiring in 1988, his summers were spent in Primrose, P.E.I.
