Agnes Mayer McKittrick

Agnes Mayer McKittrick was born on Jan. 24, 1910, in Marak, Texas, to Vaclav Mayer and Vincencia Petru. She grew up on the farm in Milam County. She worked for Jack and Minnie Lewis for many years and remained close to the family. She worked at Camp Pendelton, California, when she met and married her husband Leslie McKittrick. After her retirement of 25 years, in 1970 they made their home in Cameron, where their garden and her pickles became a family and community legend. She loved people, her church, bingo, roses, crocheting, family and life in general.

She was preceded in death by her parents, and her husband,  Leslie McKittrick. Also preceding her were her brothers, Vaclav Mayer, Rudolph Mayer, Joe Mayer, Charlie Mayer, Anton Mayer; and her sisters, Mary Kolodejeak, Matilda Pavelek, Vincie Junek, Adela Mayer, Ludmilla Mayer; and 10 nieces and nephews.

She is survived by her sister, Martha Stuhff of Las Vegas, Nev.; and 25 nieces and nephews. Also by four “children of heart,” many cousins and friends.

The family of Agnes thanks the following groups for being part of her life especially during this last century: St. Monica’s church for prayers and visits, Cameron Nursing and Rehab Center for love and care by their entire staff - always. To the Standard Hospice Group for the care during her final year of life “Thank You.”

Services will be under the direction of St. Monica’s Church and Marek-Burns-Laywell Funeral Home.

Visitation and rosary were held on Sunday, May 13. Funeral Mass by Father Tom Chamberlain   will be on Monday, May 14, at 11 a.m. followed by a meal.

Thank you for loving our “Special Person.”
