The Bakersfield Californian 
Majors, Velva Lee     
1945 - 2005 
 
Velva Lee Majors 
Services: Sat., Aug. 13, 10:30 a.m. 

Memorial services will be held on Saturday, August 13, at 10;30 a.m., at 
Greenlawn Southwest Memorial Chapel, 2739 Panama Ln. for Velva Lee Majors, 60, 
who passed away Sunday, July 31, 2005, in Fort Worth, Texas. Velva was born on 
January 22, 1945, in Klamath Falls, Oregon to John and Elsie Cook. She married 
Brad Majors on November 5, 1964. Her life encompassed many roles, including 
loving wife, mother, grandmother, teacher, businesswoman, and hobbyist. Her 
biggest passion was life itself. This included family, extended family, 
friends, and even the person behind the register. No matter how you felt, with 
Velva in your presence, you could not help but smile and feel the joy of life. 
In business she managed the racing team for American Honda, and was a 
marketing manager at Mattel, Inc. It was her career managing medical offices 
that brought her to teaching at Tarrant County Community College. It was the 
passing on of knowledge that became her second passion. Velva was preceded in 
death by her mother, Elsie Cook and daughter, Angela René. She is survived by 
her father, John Cook; brother, Victor; husband, Brad; sons, Brady and Bryan; 
and her three grandsons, Christopher, Justin, Nathan. In her short time with 
us, Velva touched the lives of many with her compassionate, joyous nature, and 
willingness to befriend all. She is loved and will be missed. In lieu of 
flowers, please send donations in Velvas name to UCLA Jonsson Cancer Center 
Foundation, Box 951780, Factor BLDG., Room 8-950, Los Angeles, CA 90095-1780.
