Murray Mitchell

Murray Mitchell, born August 1, 1951, passed away peacefully on February 5, 2025 in Saskatoon.

Murray was a devoted father to his three children: Angie Morris (Blair Morris), Blair (Leslie), and Bryce. He was also a proud grandfather to Miranda and Jake. He will be deeply missed by his many relatives, friends, and all who had the pleasure of knowing him. He was predeceased by his loving parents, Weir and Ena Mitchell.

Born and raised in Saskatoon, Murray built a life filled with hard work, adventure, and laughter. He spent many summers near Tisdale, farming alongside his parents, where he developed a strong work ethic and love for the land. Over the years, he held various jobs, from driving trucks to working at Prairieland Casino, but he was best known for his time with Radio Cabs as "Cab 39". Murray had a knack for connecting with people, always ready with a joke, a story, or a bit of advice- whether you asked for it or not.

He had a passion for dancing and spent years trying to convince his kids and grandkids to take ballroom dance lessons. A true casino enthusiast, Murray never passed up an opportunity to visit one, even planning trips until his final days.

Murray will be remembered for his warm smile, welcoming nature, and the endless wisdom he shared with family, friends, and neighbors. His presence lit up any room, and his wit and kindness left a lasting impression on everyone he met.

A Celebration of Murray's life will be held Wednesday, February 12, 2025 at 1:00 p.m. at the Edwards Family Centre (parking available at the Saskatoon Funeral Home). in lieu of flowers, take a moment to share a story, crack a joke, enjoy a dance, or have fun at your favourite casino in his honour- just as he would have wanted.

Rest easy, Murray. Your laughter, love, and unforgettable presence will live on in the hearts of those who knew you.
