With heavy hearts, the family of Caleb Mitchell announces that he passed away on Friday, January 29, 2016 at Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto.
Caleb came into this world earlier than anticipated and left in the same fashion - too soon. He was born on August 31st, 2014 at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto.
To the outside world, Caleb was equal parts shy and hilariously curmudgeonly. He reserved his smiles and dance moves for the true loves of his life: Mummy, Dada and big brother Dan-Dan. He loved his books, playing peak-a-boo, eating mashed potatoes, staring contests with complete strangers, heckling sporting events on the TV, and dancing to Beyonce.
Caleb, who was born with a congenital heart defect, was lovingly and tirelessly cared for by the team at the Cardiac Critical Care Unit at Sick Kids Hospital, his surgeon, Dr Osami Honjo, and his cardiologist, Dr Ra Han.
He will be dearly missed by his father, Andrew Mitchell, mother, Sarah Mitchell and brother Daniel Mitchell.
Please join us in celebrating Caleb's too short life on Friday, February 5, 2016 at R.S Kane Funeral Home, 6150 Yonge Street, Toronto. Visitation will begin at 12.30pm. The service will begin at 1:30pm and will be immediately followed by a reception.
Grieving Caleb's too short life is the price we pay for the honour and privilege of having loved and been loved by him. In the spirit of celebration, the family asks attendees to wear bright colours.
