My Aunt Kaye was a compassionate person who always found the "fun" in every occasion. She loved her family and we all loved her. I was lucky to carry her name as I admired her very much. I know her mother and brothers were waiting for her and they are having a wonderful time together in God's house. I look forward to seeing her again someday. Love you Aunt Kaye, Cheri Kaye Collins McAden (TX)
