April 30, 2020
Eleanor Kathryn “Kay” Minjock, 68, of Lititz, formerly of Charleroi, PA passed away peacefully Thursday, April 30, 2020 at home surrounded by love. Born in North Charleroi, PA she was the daughter of the late John Robert “Jack” and Helen Jean (Harris) Stevenson. She was the beloved wife of Joseph Albert Minjock with whom she shared over 39 beautiful years of marriage. Kay was a 1969 graduate of Charleroi Area High School.
In addition to her husband Joe, she is survived by her daughter, Larissa “Lacy” Lilly, Lititz; son, Zachary (Nina) Minjock, Lititz; six grandchildren, her “angels”, Rayna, Kayla, Jack, Kate, Ryder, and Alexandra. She is also survived by a sister, Nancy (the late Marvin) Greenberg, Chicago, IL; two brothers, Mark (Lee Ann) Stevenson, Charleroi, PA; John Richard “Rick” Stevenson, Charleroi, PA, and many cousins, nieces, nephews, and loved ones. She was preceded in death by a brother, Robert Stevenson.
After an unusual presentation of the disease, Kay was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer on April 18, 2019. She possessed a tremendous amount of grace throughout the year that followed.
Kay was a devoted wife, mom and Grammy. She had an infectious smile, a loving and kind heart, and the most incredibly gentle soul. She was an angel on earth. Kay saw the good in each and every person she knew and always put the needs of others before her own. Her happiest moments were with family and at the beach.
Memorial Services will be held at a later date. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, donations in Kay’s memory may be made to METAvivor, 1783 Forest Dr., #184, Annapolis, MD 21401 or www.metavivor.org.
