September 5, 1955 - August 27, 2025
Marylou Majowski, age 69, of Racine passed away unexpectedly while battling cancer on August 27, 2025 at Aurora Medical Center Mount Pleasant. Born in Park Ridge, Ill., daughter of the late Louis and Rosemary (Nee: Conlon) Zalewski. Marylou graduated from Prairie High School in Racine, Wis. She earned her undergraduate degree from Clarke University in Dubuque, Iowa and later received her Masters from UW Milwaukee. Following her graduation from Clarke University, Marylou began her teaching career in Racine where she spent the majority of her career working in several local parochial schools, and retired from the Red Apple School.
It was while teaching at St. Joseph Grade School she met Joseph Majowski and on June 6th, 1981 they were united in marriage. After 43 years of marriage, Joe passed in February of 2025.
Marylou enjoyed working in her garden, cheering on the Brewers, and quilting. She cherished the time she spent with her family, friends, and beloved dog Josie Rose.
