MITCHELL: Agnes ‘Nancy’ Kennedy (nee Walker) of Cobourg and formerly of Seaforth

October 20, 1928 – September 13, 2026

Affectionately known as Nancy, in her 98th year our Mum passed away with her daughter Nancy and son-in-law Norm by her side on September 13, 2026.  Beloved wife, soul mate and best friend of the late William ‘Bill’ Mitchell (2015). Loving mother of the late Alex Mitchell (2024) and his wife Pat of Port Colborne, Nancy Jones and her husband Norm of Cobourg and Bill Mitchell and his wife Angie (2003) of Brampton. She was a wonderful Gramma to Brian and Matt, KyIa and Liam.  The best Gigi to her great-grand children Zoey, Lauren and Chayce. She held a special place in her heart for her second adopted family: grandchildren Mary Ann (Gerald) and Paul (Annalyn), and great-grandchildren Alexis, Olivia, Desiree, Sarah, Conner, Isabella, Karlo and El-Jay. Dear sister to Bill Walker (Sheena 2018) of Scotland. She will be remembered by her many nieces, nephews, and friends. 

A private memorial service to celebrate Nancy’s life will be held at the Haskett Funeral Home, 87 Goderich Street West, SEAFORTH.

Donations to the Alzheimer Society of Canada or the Egmondville United Church would be appreciated.

A life well lived, my aunt Nancy! I will always remember her sense of humor (!) and her joy of being alive. I’m so lucky to have been a part of her life and the family that she will always be a part of.

Mrs Mitchell was the sweetest. I loved her little snort when she laughed. She will be missed but is now reunited with her love. May her memory be a blessing to all of those who loved her so dearly.

Sweet Nancy, you will be missed. I have such fond memories of a childhood spent with you and your two side kicks, Granny Doig and Aunt Noreen, visiting Janet’s Donuts and Tasty-Nu to catch up on the gossip. Paul and I loved our visits with Kyla and Liam which always involved 1 or a few Kit Kat treats. Say hello to our Pal, Bill. 💜

Dear Family
My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time.
I used to work at Keatings Pharmacy. She was a sweet lady.

Condolence from Maggie Mitchell on September 27th, 2026 8:58 PM

Auntie Nancy. Always up for a wee blether. I will miss your spirit, your up beat and our laughter! Heaven holds lots of hugs for you☮️❤️

Condolence from “That” Pat Kennedy on September 28th, 2026 12:43 PM

Came into the Mitchell home 55 years ago. Nancy always made me feel welcome and I enjoyed many fun filled family gatherings. Nancy was a remarkable woman. ❤️

Condolence from Carolanne Doig on September 29th, 2026 9:10 AM

Nancy, Norman, Brian, Matt & families – my sincerest sympathy to you all. No matter our ages or the ages of our parents, when they leave us it is a life changing event. Your mom and granny was one of the most wonderful people I knew in my life. She was always cheerful and made everyone around her smile and laugh too. Even in recent months her voice on the phone with its distinctive Scottish brogue was strong and true. She just sounded like she was sitting in a chair beside you. Nancy was a dear friend to both my parents as well as a “relative by marriage” to my Aunt Noreen, and therefore my family as well. Both Bill and Nancy brought joy to our gatherings. It is indeed the “end of an era” but I hope you, like me will remember all those good times enjoyed in a long life well lived. CA

Condolence from Debbie Colbourne on September 29th, 2026 9:57 AM

Condolence from Helen Nott and family on October 3rd, 2026 1:24 PM
