Celebrating His Spirit Eric Markell Mitchell was born on April 29, 2006 at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Edgewood, Kentucky to Amber Renee Shears and Eric Joseph Mitchell. He returned to the arms of The Lord on November 1, 2018. Eric, affectionately called "Nunu," by family, enjoyed sports, especially boxing and football. His favorite football team was the Bengals and he enjoyed discussing their games with his great-grandmother, Sadie Miller. In 2017 Eric was selected for a personal shopping trip with his favorite Bengal player AJ Green. He was very neat about his appearance and very organized. Eric loved music and making videos with his brothers and sisters. He attended Ethel M. Taylor Academy Elementary School, where he was a sixth-grade student. Eric loved school and was very determined to become a straight-A, honor-roll student. He was a member of the school's chess club and participated in boxing at the Millvale Recreation Center. Eric enjoyed being helpful, encouraging and motivating to others. He was blessed with a charming personality that attracted many friends. He disliked bullies and often spoke up for others who were bullied. Eric was outspoken on issues he felt strongly about and just like a "little lawyer," he debated and supported his opinions with facts. He loved figuring out anything that presented a challenge. He was especially determined to learn how to do a sudoku puzzle, his mother's favorite past time. Eric also took great interest in Amber's love of 90s musician era his brothers and sisters called "old people's music." But Eric usually liked things his mother enjoyed. He would sit under her and encourage her to play more music saying, "Yeah Momma, I like that one." He loved to see her smile.
