Melissa (Missy) Christine Sayers passed away suddenly at her home on March 13, 2023, in her 29th year.
Missy has returned to be with her ancestors in the spirit world, living only briefly in this world.
Missy is greatly missed by her two children, Kayden-Anne, 11 years old, and Craig Jr (CJ) Macdonald, eight months, created out of love and grieved for by her life partner Kyle Francis Macdonald.
Missy is survived by six siblings, Daniel, (Tara), Charleana, (Tyrell), David, Anna Mae, Elizabeth (Lizzie), and Justin; her father, Jon Martin; and her uncle Bill Martin.
Missy is dearly loved and will forever be missed by her many cousins.
She is also missed by her extended family, who became her aunties and uncles when they were lovingly taken in and symbolically adopted by her Kokum Geri, when they came to live in Toronto.
Missy was greeted at the Western Doorway by her mom, Colleen Sayers, her Kokum, Geraldine (Geri) Martin, her Mishomis, Richard Bedwash, her grandfather Bill Martin, her uncles Mike (Tina) and Chuck Martin, and all of her ancestors.
Missy was on maternity leave from her work at Native Child & Family Services, where she worked as a youth councillor. She will be loved forever by those she helped.
Forever in our hearts
