Maizie Fulford (nee Armstrong) of Clarksburg passed away suddenly at Brightshores Hospital in Owen Sound with her family by her side on Thursday, October 10, 2024, at the age of 89. She was predeceased by her cherished husband Elmer in 2018.
Maizie was very proud of her family, always keeping up to date with their activities and accomplishments. She was the loving mother of Marsha (Keith) Densmore of Port Dover, Teresa (Brad) Oakley of Clarksburg, and Kevin (Ruth) of Clarksburg. She will be sadly missed by her grandchildren Amanda (Matt) MacEwen of Listowel, Darcey Havekes (Taylor Patterson) of London, Kyle (Debby) Oakley of Thornbury, Krista Oakley (Travis Polaniec) of Meaford, and great-grandchildren Georgia MacEwen, Davis MacEwen, Avery Oakley, Carter Oakley, and Jackson Polaniec. Dearly loved and missed by sister-in-law Shirley (Jim) Storey of St Catharines and nephew Darren Storey of Clarksburg. Fondly remembered by Ken and Jeanie Oakley.
Maizie was a fabulous cook and baker – tea biscuits and jam, Baked Alaska, Black Forest Cake, and of course the butter tarts and Christmas cookies and squares (that the kids secretly snacked on, taking them from the freezer). She enjoyed gardening, loved her walks (that included visits) around town when weather allowed, her frequent telephone conversations with family and friends, and most recently her Friday afternoon ‘tea-time’ with the ladies. Maizie was a good friend – and when she believed in something strongly, she could also be quite firm in her convictions. She was very fortunate to have excellent neighbours who became good friends, and that looked out for her well-being. Maizie was blessed with good health, and as she aged was able to stay in her own home.
Cremation has taken place. In keeping with Maizie’s wishes there will be no reception or service. As an expression of sympathy, donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, CNIB Foundation, or a charity of your choice would be appreciated. Arrangements entrusted to Grey Bruce Cremation and Burial Services, greybrucecremation.com.
