It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Maizilyn Henningham on January 3, 2022, at the tender age of 62.

Maizilyn is survived by husband Cleveland, sons Moiyan, Andrew and Ray, mother Merdena, sisters Novlette, Ruth, Marcia and Vadeen, and a host of nieces and nephews.

She was a passionate teacher, always making time to have one on one with students to ensure their success. As a loving and devoted mother, especially to her youngest Ray, the sacrifices she made in order to ensure her children’s lives would be as comfortable as possible, is a testament to her selfless nature.

Maizilyn was the rock of our family and words cannot express how much she will be missed.

A private Memorial Service to celebrate the life of Maizilyn will be held on at The Simple Alternative Funeral Centre - Pickering on Saturday January 29, 2022. Due to the current COVID-19 restrictions, the visitation and service are by invitation only.

The graveside service will be held immediately after the funeral at the Duffin Meadows Cemetery at 1:45pm. Attendance is open to the public, however physical distancing of 2 meters must be maintained. Those who are not able to attend the funeral will have the opportunity to pay their respects at the interment.
