Mylz Joshua Anderson-Finney's Obituary
Mylz Joshua Anderson-Finney, age 3, beloved son, brother, and grandson, passed away on Saturday, October 7, 2023, at Nemours Hospital for Children. He was born on November 4, 2019.
Our magnificent Mylz, his mommy’s sweet boy, was called to heaven by his older brother Marcus to dance on the clouds. In Mylz’s short time here, he impacted so many lives. At just 3 years old he was a survivor. Mylz beat cancer, a bone marrow transplant, and he was an epilepsy warrior. He fought the fight of a thousand men and WON. Mylz had the most contagious laugh, the strongest will, and gave the best fist bumps and hugs with pats. He enjoyed Sing, Baby Shark, Bluey, stroller rides, searching for the ducks with Mimi, and Mommy pushing him on the swings. The love he had for his sisters was unparalleled. Mylz was the mayor of 3 East at Nemours. We are eternally grateful to his amazing doctors, his nurses (Ms. Deb), caregivers, and all staff at Nemours that treated Mylz throughout his courageous battles.
Mylz was preceded in death by his brother Marcus; his Aunt Whitney; great-grandparents; and paternal grandfather. He is survived by his mother Morgan Anderson; his fathers: Maurice Finney and Marvous Johnson; his sisters: Remi and Hope; his Mimi and Pop-Pop John (Barbara) Anderson, Mom-Mom Tabitha Finney and Pop-Pop Ike, Mom-Mom Theresa Johnson and Great-Grandma Tish Sturgis; his Aunt Kelly (Uncle Gary), Uncle Ryan (Ashley), Uncles Joey, Desmond, William, Thaddeus, and Jarvis; and his extended family, aunts, uncles, cousins, and siblings. Mylz will surely miss his battle buddies: Henry and Maya; warrior moms: Janet (Tom) and Lynette. A special recognition to Dr Caywood, NP Erin Tingue, Dr Gresh, Dr White, and the entire Hematology and Oncology department for their wonderful care.
