Betty Jane Majeski

Betty Jane Majeski of Hemlock, Michigan

Beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother, aunt, and friend passed away peacefully on Saturday, January 15, 2022, at Shields Comfort Care in Saginaw. She was 100 years old. Betty Jane Graham was born on February 23, 1921, in Saginaw, Michigan, to the late William and Anna (Nothelfer) Graham. She married the love of her life, Stanley Majeski, on June 8, 1940; he preceded her in death on December 20, 2005. Betty was a lifelong and faithful member of St. John XXIII Parish, St. Mary Catholic Church and was a member of the Catholic Women's League. She loved the role of her lifetime, being a wife, mother and grandmother. Betty was a gifted seamstress and enjoyed sewing, as well as crocheting. Betty was also a quilter and made her entire family beautiful and priceless quilts. She was a superb cook and marvelous baker, knowing exactly how many cups of love, dashes of kindness, and pinches of care were needed to make everything taste great. Betty also took great pride in her independence and even at 100, she was still working on her puzzles. Above all, she loved and cherished her family and the many gatherings she was able to celebrate throughout her life. She left her indelible mark in this world with grace and reverence, with her wonderful sense of humor, and for her profound kindness to all she knew and loved.
