Obituary of Mitchell Alexander Whittaker

It is with deepest sorrow that we announce the sudden passing of Mitchell Alexander Whittaker, age 43. Mitchell was born in Prince George, B.C., on January 29, 1981, and died in Cranbrook, B.C., November 17, 2024.

He is survived by his fiancé Nicole Vigne and 6 children (Jaxson, Dale, Alexsis, Maddison, Elaina and Farren). Mother, Constance (Bog), and father, Randy. Brothers: Jeff (Kat), Brad (Toni), David (Erin). Sisters: Bonnie (Fransico) and Wendy. Grandmother Maria Erkelens. Also, many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and friends. 

He is predeceased by his stepdad Rick Haley, and by his grandparents. As well as his favorite dog Halo.  

He grew up loving sports, and animals (as a typical true Whittaker) and loved the outdoors and hanging around the bonfire with the music turned up loud. He was the funniest guy in the room, a man that would give you the shirt off his back, had a hard exterior, but was compassionate and emotional deep down. He valued hard work before injuries slowed him down. His explosive laughter, quiet chuckling, jokes, hilarious storytelling, and soft smile will be missed by so many.

A Memorial Service will be held in the spring for family and friends.
