TAMEN XAVIER MITCHELL-MERCREDI

MAY 9, 2023 – AUGUST 6, 2023

 

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Tamen Mitchell-Mercredi on August 6, 2023 at the Children’s Hospital. He took his last breath at 7:31 a.m. at the age of 2 months, 28 days. We live in Winnipeg, Manitoba in the Riverbend area.

Tamen is survived by his loving Parents, Chance Scott and Trina Dumas Mitchell, Brothers Tadrian Mitchell and Chance Jr Mercredi, Grandparents Cora Mercredi, Marie Dumas and Terry Mitchell; Uncle Terry Jr Mitchell; Aunties Tammy Mitchell and Niya Mercredi and Great-Grandmother Mary Carr. Predeceased by Papa Davie and Gramma Melanie.

Tamen was a little boy that could light up the whole room with his smile alone, not to mention his beautiful laugh and strong grip of your fingers. I’m going to miss you so much my boy. Mommy, Daddy and your Brothers all love you so much. It’s not goodbye…it’s see you later.

We would like to thank the nursing station and RCMP of Grand Rapids and the nurses of the Children’s Hospital of PICU, MCN Band and Wojcik’s Funeral Chapel.

You are my sunshineMy only sunshineYou make me happyWhen skies are grayYou’ll never know, dearHow much I love youPlease don’t takeMy sunshine away
The other night, dearAs I lay sleepingI dreamed I held youIn my armsWhen I awoke, dearI was mistakenSo I hung my head and I cried
You are my sunshineMy only sunshineYou make me happyWhen skies are grayYou’ll never know, dearHow much I love youPlease don’t takeMy sunshine away
