Mitchell, James
June 4, 1939 … July 23, 2020
Born in Perth Scotland, James Mitchell passed peacefully at Cambridge
Memorial Hospital with his wife of 57 years, Elizabeth, and their son
James Jr. (Lee Ann) by his side. Devoted father to Debbie Mitchell
(Ray) and Julie Lapointe (Keith). He was an amazing Papa to Dawn
Rieck, David Henry, Dylan Lapointe, Liam Mitchell, Hailey Mitchell,
Kenzie Lapointe, and great-grandfather of five. Survived by his
brother Mackenzie Mitchell and his wife Vivian. Jim will be missed by
family in Canada, Scotland, England, and Australia.
James was well known for his kindness and gentle demeanor, as well as
his incredible cunning at the poker table. His call of “All
In” was common, and his friendships shared with those around the
poker table were cherished.
His love of Canada was as deep as his love of his homeland, and he
returned to see “The Heather” and his family often over
his 54 years in Cambridge.
