Kay loved to read and play the piano and organ. One of her biggest treasures in life were her grandchildren. She treasured and loved each of them both equally and individually. She would do anything in the world for them, including making their favorite chocolate gravy and biscuits anytime they asked. She lived life as a faithful servant of God and was a witness to every single person she came in contact with as a reflection of Christ's love. She remembered everyone’s birthday and anniversary by sending cards in the mail. She leaves behind a legacy of love that will live on in her family and the many people she touched.
