Kay was a dear,dear childhood and life long friend of my mother, Louise. They grew up in Campton, went to high school, and Concord Business School together, and remained friends for a lifetime. I will always remember the visits to her home and our home in Bow and the joy Kay and my mother shared. Thank you Kay for being an important and loving part of our life. Jeff Foote
