Dear Myers Family,

I send my deepest condolences on your loss and the loss to the Kansas City community. Kay was a student in my MSW class and we shared many Kansas City experiences. She invited me to work with her program, ReStart, when I was a doctoral student. I could not do the work there; she could and she could see the possibilities for individual change and new futures for the people who were in that program. When she applied for the position at KU that became the rest of her...

Charles, we're so sorry for your loss of a beautiful, talented lady. Know that Stan and I are thinking of you at this time.

Charles, so sorry for your family's loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Kay Lynn was a student of mine at KU. I learned more from her than she learned from me.

Kay Lynne was a Northland treasure. When she was involved in something one knew the event, project, committee, program or collaboration would be a big success.
Heaven is home to another angel.

My deepest sympathy to the Myers family.

I was sorry to hear of Kay Lynne's passing. Kay Lynne's family is in my thoughts and prayers. I worked with Kay Lynne when she served on the Children's Trust Fund Board of Directors.
She was a wonderful person and advocate for children. Many kids are safe and successful today because of her tireless efforts over the years.
God Bless you,
Bill Heberle
