Sophie F. Majercik
WILSONVILLE — Sophie F. Majercik, 94, ended her long life’s journey on March 7, 2013.  She was the daughter of Joseph and Mary (Macek) Majercik.  Sophie was born in Webster, raised in Wilsonville, and spent most of her life in the Webster and Dudley area.
Sophie – also known as “Sherry” to some of her friends in years gone by – worked in several factories in the area including The Record Corporation of New England (Webster Record) and Stevens Linen from which she retired in the mid-1980s.
Sophie was an avid reader and enjoyed visiting the Pearle Crawford Library for many years – bringing home baked goodies to the staff there.  She had fond memories of weekends in New York City and trips to Niagara Falls and Montreal.  Sophie’s best memory was of the year she lived in San Francisco, during the 1940s.  She was young, carefree, and fell in love with the City by the Bay. Sophie was a strong, independent, hard working woman who was also loving and kind.  As a single parent, she struggled to provide a safe, secure environment for her child and she succeeded beyond measure.  It is a testament to her courage, caring, and dignity that she excelled at what she considered her most important job – being a good parent.
She leaves her daughter, Lee Ann Majercik of Webster, and Lee Ann’s companion, Walter W. Swett Jr. Sophie was also aunt and great-aunt to many nieces and nephews.  She was one of 11 children and the last surviving sibling.  She was predeceased by her brothers, Anthony Majercik, Andrew Majercik, Joseph Majercik, Paul Majercik and John Majercik; sisters, Mary Stefanik, Elizabeth Labbe, Clara Majercik, Susan McGuiness and Anna Zabka.
