HOGEWONING, Magdelena Elizabeth.
On November 8, 2023, Magda Hogewoning passed away peacefully after a brief and intense illness. The oldest daughter born into her family, Magda exemplified loyalty, sincerity, professionalism, and generosity throughout her life. Family meant everything to Magda, and she adored her siblings, nieces, nephews, and extended family, both in Canada and the Netherlands, who knew her for her quiet presence. Magda’s career began in 1971 when she was hired as a teller for the Bank of Montreal (BMO) where she enjoyed more than 30 years employed in various capacities. Later, Magda worked an additional 12 years for the Federation of Independent Schools Association (FISA) where she was recognized for proficiency in office management and for excellence in working, as she always preferred, ‘behind the scenes’ in order to advance the work of those around her. Magda’s strong faith was evident in the way that she modelled her life after that of her Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, by serving and loving others in her church and in the broader community. In her early life, Magda was preceded in death by her brother Casey (1969) and her mother, Catharine (1972), and later by many other loved ones as well. Magda leaves to mourn her death her siblings Nick (Evelyn), Jenny, Gerda (Mike), Jackie (Mike), Jeffrey (Laura), Ken (Amanda), and Angela (Brad), along with their children and grandchildren; her uncle, Gerrit Hogewoning, and dear ones (in the Netherlands); and a host of friends and neighbours nearby who loved and will miss her dearly.
Magda’s memorial service was held on Tuesday, November 21, 2023, at 1:00pm at New Westminster Christian Reformed Church. A live stream recording of the service is available here: youtube.com/live/HWdbp1KjWxE.
