Not sure what to say?

A great friend who told the truth. She was raised right. Unafraid to speak and a true friend. My sympathies to her family and particularly her niece Brenda who took good care of Kay.

Being 18 and meeting Aunt Kay for the first time...dinner pork roll sandwiches and how could Brenda bring me home for the first time when she is serving pork roll (but I love it) little did she know that I would now be joining them for dinner at least 3 times a week...she started treating me just like one of the family ... after moving away every time I came to visit there were seckel pears waiting for me and some cooking lessons, 45 years later and still teaching me things...will miss Aunt...

Kay was very much loved. We'll greatly miss our phone chats, when we would talk about everything under the sun and what was cooking on the stove. She was a lovely soul. Shine on Kay...

My Mom Theresa worked with Kay at GM many years ago. As a child I remember her coming home from GM talking about her work buddy Kay. My mom had talked so highly of Kay. Seeing that Kay was involved in many work and union activities and charities I see why my mom was impressed with Kay. Those women surely paved the way for many of us. Best to your family at this time. Darlene

So sorry to Brenda and family. Aunt Kay was many things to many people. She was funny and wise. She'll be greatly missed. Rest in peace.

Kay was such a wonderful lady, I enjoyed meeting her and hearing her voice when she would call work and check on her niece. You are with your love ones now and I know you will be watching over your family. Prayers being sent out to Brenda and family and Aunt Kay's friends.

My deepest condolences...if only we could turn back the time!

Rest in peace Aunt Kay
