Sandra Kay Majek, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully on September 6, 2025, in Corpus Christi, Texas. She was born on May 13, 1949, in Kingsville, Texas, to Arthur Scholz and Willie Mae (Scholz) Sheets. Kay lived a fulfilling life filled with love, compassion, and a dedication to her family and community that touched the hearts of everyone who knew her.

Kay was a proud graduate of Corpus Christi State University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Education. Her passion for teaching led her to serve as an educator at Saints Cyril and Methodius Catholic School, where she inspired countless students with her warmth and dedication. After a rewarding career in education, she retired in 2014, leaving a lasting legacy in the lives she shaped.

On July 26, 1969, Kay married the love of her life, Michael C. Majek, at Christ the King Catholic Church in Corpus Christi. Their union spanned 56 wonderful years, marked by unwavering love and mutual support. Together they raised three wonderful children: Christy Esquivel (Carlos), Cheryl Majek, and Charles Michael Majek III (Liann). Kay was not just a mother; she was a cornerstone of her family, known for her nurturing spirit and her ability to bring people together.

Her greatest joy came from spending time with her grandchildren: David Esquivel, Emily Esquivel, Kayla Reyna, Anthony Reyna, Kaitlyn Majek, Kelsey Majek, Christa G. Mawyer (Mandi), and Joe Garcia (Kelsey), as well as her great-grandchild, Violet Garcia. Kay cherished every moment spent with them, often completing projects and baking cookies, creating sweet memories that will last a lifetime.

Kay was preceded in death by her parents, Arthur Scholz and Willie Mae (Scholz) Sheets, her in-laws Charles Michael Majek, Sr. and Judith Majek, her beloved granddaughters Kathryn and Kimberly Reyna, and her brother, Ernest Scholz. She is survived by her devoted husband, Michael; her children; her grandchildren; and her great-grandchild, along with her siblings Sharen Rickman and Karen Tatum, brother-in- law Jerry L. Majek, sister-in-law Janette Scholz, and a host of loving friends, cherished cousins, nieces, nephews, and godchildren.

Beyond her family, Kay was actively engaged in her community. She was the SPJST Youth Director and a Girl Scout Leader, always finding ways to give back and inspire the next generation. Her compassionate and caring nature extended to all around her, embodying the essence of a woman of faith who touched many lives.

Kay's hobbies included gardening and sewing, pursuits that reflected her beautiful spirit and creativity. She found peace and joy in tending to her garden, creating vibrant spaces that mirrored her warm and nurturing personality.

The family wishes to extend a heartfelt thanks to her doctors, Enhabit Hospice, Casandra Vargas, and Clara Canizales for their caring support and dedication during her final days.

Kay leaves behind a legacy of love, devotion, and inspiration. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered for her kind heart, unwavering faith, and the countless lives she touched throughout her remarkable journey. Her spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
