Christine Agnes Adamson Henry

August 23, 1942 - June 24, 2019

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our Mother, Chris (Christine, Guddy) Henry, (Nee Clelland) at the age of 76 on June 24, 2019, surrounded by family at the Margaret Bahen Hospice, in Newmarket, Ontario.

Born Aug 23, 1942 in Larkhall, Scotland, Chris immigrated to Toronto, Canada at the age of 4 with her loving parents, Christina and Thomas Clelland.

Left to cherish her memory are her daughters, Donna (Michael) and Cathy, grandchild, Adam (Cheryl), step-grandchildren, Lauren (Myles), Candice (Michael), Aimee (Andrew), Jason (Ashley), step great-grandchildren, Kobe (Predeceased), Jakob, Ryan, Avery, Zoey, Chloe, Makenzie, Emersyn, Griffin, Lincoln, and her favourite cousins and their families, Susan (Dave), Jean (Dave), Don (June), Christine (Danny, Predeceased).

Mum had an infectious laugh, a great sense of humour and brought much joy and laughter to those around her. She loved Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, crosswords, movies and Brad Pitt. Mum also loved to travel, especially being able to see Canada from coast to coast.

Chris worked for 42 years in the Toronto office of Statistics Canada in a variety of roles. She received the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal.

We would like to thank the team at the Stronach Regional Cancer Centre at Southlake. They helped support and treat her for the past three years throughout her battle with cancer.

We are extremely grateful to the extraordinary care team and volunteers of the Margaret Bahen Hospice. These are incredible people that provided love, care, compassion, and special moments of support to Mum and our family during the three months of her residency there.

In lieu of flowers we ask that a donation be made in memory to the Margaret Bahen Hospice, www.myhospice.ca , click on the “Support My Hospice” link OR to the Hospital of Sick Children, www.sickkids.ca , click on the “Donate” link.
