Kay was very special to me and I have wonderful memories of our time working together. She would bring in the best treats that were her latest find at the store to share with all of us in the office. We would laugh and talk about how we would spend the big "lottery win". Kay was always willing to listen and be supportive. She touched many lives with her kind friendship. I will miss her.
