Nick very sadly passed away on the 28th of October 2020.

The Mitchem family would like to thank everyone for all the lovely
messages, cards, and flowers that they have sent.

Chess was always a huge part of Nick's life. Not only did he love the game, but he made many great and lasting friendships within the chess community, and took great pleasure in teaching his niece and nephews how to play.

If anyone wishes to make a donation in Nick's name, the family will be supporting Chess In Schools and Communities –  a charity that aims to empower children through Chess. It seems only fitting.
