Born in Thunder Bay, Magz grew up in Gull Bay and Whitesand First Nation before moving to Thunder Bay. Magz also has roots in Six Nations where she also resided in her younger years.
Magz was loved by many and truly was one-of-a-kind, so unique in her own ways. She was fearless, outspoken and so strong willed with a contagious outgoing personality. Maigan had many friends; she had a charisma about her that people were drawn to. She was the sister/friend who always had your back. The life of the party, she was quick witted, who loved to laugh and joke around. She loved her music and could imitate any movie line or person. More significantly, Maigan was the most kind, caring, loving mother, daughter, granddaughter, sister, auntie, niece, cousin and friend that you could ask for. Her family is one thing she kept close to her heart. She certainly had an impact on those she met along her path.
Maigan had an enormous family on both sides and will be forever loved and missed especially by her beautiful daughter, Myley-Lynn Cheesequay-Anderson, whom she loved dearly with all her heart and soul, she made sure she felt her love every chance she could.
