Whenever I think of Kay it puts a smile on my face. I always enjoyed
her company at the many hockey games over the years and I'll always remember the delicious pork roast dinner she made the first time I met her so many years ago.
We are thinking of all of you and hope your memories bring you comfort in the days ahead.

Please let us know if we can do anything for you.
