I was fortunate enough to have Kay and Meyer Honda as a client for 12 years. She was always a delight to talk to and to work with. I always like to get a laugh out of Kay (and she always gave me a smile). When people would ask me what she's like, I'd say, what you heard is what she was.
She lived life on her terms. Earlier I stated she was a client. She was more than that. She was a friend. Good bless you Kay Baby.

My dear Kay....I already miss you so much.....our weekly talks were a favorite of mine. You were an almost life-long friedn to my daughter, Beth, and the two of you shared so many happy times.....I don't have enough words to describe all your attributes.....but just being a friend will have to do. Like the saying goes...I reached for a hand and you gave me your heart. I felt so honored when you referred to me as your "Mom in Florida". Please know that you will always remain in both my and Beth's hearts. Rest in Peace, Kay, Baby. Love you, Jeanne Franse

We sure miss Kay in the old neighborhood. Life was always interesting when she was around, like the time she was on the way to the grocery store because "Martin's coming home and the only food in the house is popcorn and carrots."
