It is with sadness that the family of Jerry Charles Alton
Mitchell, age 75, of Hampton, NB, announces his death which occurred
unexpectedly on Sunday, September 17, 2017 at his residence.
He was born on March 23, 1942, in Bridgetown, NS, a son of the late
Angus and Doris (Mansfield) Mitchell.
Jerry was retired from the Canadian Armed Forces where he
worked as a Laboratory Technologist. He was a well known collector of
anything that caught his attention. Jerry was a well known trumpet
player in his early Legion days and was a very talented musician,
teaching himself to play wind, string and piano instruments. An entire
generation of Nova Scotia kids will remember him as a coach of hockey,
football and baseball for many years. Jerry was a proud member of the
Saint John Vocational School alumni and a long standing member of the
Royal Canadian Legion in various branches across the
country.
Jerry is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Sylvia
Evelyn Dorothy (Brooks) Mitchell; son Jerry Charles Mitchell and his
wife Shirley of Saint John, NB; daughters: Margaret-Anne Mitchell of
