Maartje Catharina Slyker Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on January 18, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Maartje Catharina Slyker (Winnipeg, Manitoba). You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

In the sacred silence of farewell, Maartje is released into the embrace of eternity, knowing that her light will continue to shine brightly in the tapestry of the lives of her loved ones. And as her memory is carried forward, may comfort be found in the knowledge that love is eternal, and that Maartje's spirit lives on in the beauty that surrounds us.

She was loved and cherished by many people including: her husband Jan Slyker; her parents, Abram Boon and Cornelia Boon; her siblings, Janny and Jaap; her stepmother Jitske; Winnipeg. She was also cherished by her great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to Inner City Youth Alive, an organization very close to her heart.
