For those of you who missed Brad’s obituary, here it is:
Bradley Mitchell, loving husband of Ann (Cameron), and father of Doug, Jane and Susan grandfather of Lucas, Nico, Cameron, William and Sterling died in Sherbrooke on August 23rd, 2016, having suffered a stroke on July 18th. He lived a good life and a happy life. Born in 1935, he was a graduate of Bishop’s College School and Bishop’s University, institutions he loved dearly and supported throughout his lifetime. Loyalty and generosity were his defining qualities, especially to his family, who he loved so dearly. He loved to welcome people from around the world to his home. Whenever there was a friend in need, or a cause to be supported, he was there before a call for help was even placed. No matter where he lived, he was always a man of the Eastern Townships, where he, his siblings Antonia, Jane, Will and Andrew, and many of their children maintain their roots. The funeral will be held Saturday, August 27th at 2:00 pm at the BCS chapel, at 80 Moulton Hill road in Lennoxville, Quebec followed by a reception at the dining hall. The family will receive condolences outside the chapel beforehand. The family is grateful to the staff of the CHUS and Brad’s many friends in the North Hatley community for their care and support in his last month. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate that donations be made to the William Mitchell scholarship fund at Bishop’s College School.
