Passed peacefully away on Friday, November 19th, 2021 at the Burin peninsula Health care Center, Bride (Baker) Mitchell, aged 82. She is joyfully reunited with her husband Hughie (deceased 2015). So many of us are left with a lifetime of memories:
Her children, Karen (Roy), Mark (Sherry), David, Patti (Herb), Sandy, Joe (Jackie), Colleen (Jason), and Jerome (Colleen).
Her grandchildren, Jason, Vincent, Jenna, Julia, Joshua, Jeremy, Cate, Daniel, Byron, Ryan, Garrett, Miriam, Sophie, Beth and Grace.
Her siblings, Kevin (Bridget), Tom (Carol), Jim (Theresa), Alice (Ray), Patricia (Johnny), Vince (Dot), and Judy (Bob). Brothers-in-law, Pat (Lolita) and Alonzo. Sisters-in-law, Orion, Regina, and Theresa.
She will also be missed by so many nieces, nephews, and extended family and friends.
Bride is predeceased by her parents, Vincent Sr. and Julia Baker; brothers, Leonard and Ed; sister, Mary, RSM; parents-in-law, Vincent and Annie Mitchell; in-laws, Thomas and Maude Mitchell, John and Susanna Hannam, Ita Cusick, and Jack Carey.
Bride was always such a respectable, responsible, loving person, incredibly devoted to her family and her church. Anyone who ever attended church in Marystown will remember Bride. At least half her life was spent caring for the altar, preparing lunches after funerals, volunteering with the Family Aid, and anything else that needed to be done. The church was her second home and she was no less involved while raising a large family of her own and caring for a sick husband.
Bride was never one to seek or want any praise; she lived her life with a smile on her face and love of God in her heart.
We are sure there is rejoicing in Heaven as this faithful servant takes her place beside the Throne of God.
“Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.
