Glen Albert Mitchell of Medicine Hat, beloved friend and partner of Wendy Lundy, passed away on Sunday, February 20th, 2022 at the age of 79 years. Glen also leaves to cherish his memory his children, Melanie (Garth) Mitchell-Epp and Michelle (Rob) Sorenson; grandchildren, Garrick (Karissa) Paterson and Taylor Sorenson; great-grandchildren, Rhys Paterson and Adelaide Paterson; brother, Donnie; sisters, Shirley and Margret; Wendy’s children, Tyler (Candice) Martens, Tara (Billy) Carter, Jace (Sheila) Lundy, and Riley (Shianne) Lundy; Wendy’s grandchildren, Emersyn, Stryker, Dane, Keeley, Kaylor, Shayda, Cashtyn, Chevelle, Autum, McKenna, Bayden, Jazlyn and Blakely; special granddaughter, Serenity Heinz; as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Glen was predeceased by his parents, Harry and Hazel Mitchell. Glen was born and raised on the family farm south of Orkney, SK. In 1983, he relocated to Maple Creek with his young family and operated his own cement company as well as the local bowling alley. In 1996, he moved to Medicine Hat and went to work maintaining and restoring John Deere tractors…an endeavor that he truly loved and was proud of. He loved to share his mechanical knowledge with others whenever the opportunity came around and he enjoyed reciting poetry and singing as well. In 2005, Glen met Wendy and they started a new chapter together, living in Irvine, and bringing together their two families. He was a generous man and would give the shirt off his back if he knew someone was in need and was a man of his word. Glen began his long battle with cancer in 2005, when he was given a six-month diagnosis. In demonstration of his strong will and perseverance, Glen was able to outwit and outlast that diagnosis by 17 years! The family have chosen to honour Glen in their thoughts and prayers without a formal service. Memorial gifts in Glen’s memory may be made to Carmel Hospice at St. Joseph’s Home, 156 – 3rd Street NE, Medicine Hat, Alberta, T1A 5M1.
