We count it a privilege to have known Kaye through Meadowbrook Christian Church for almost 20 years. She was a wonderful, caring person and always had a kind word for everybody. She had a servant's heart and was always willing to help others. We missed her after we moved to Colorado but still kept in touch. It is a great loss for the congregation but we all rejoice because Kaye is with the Lord that she so dearly loved and we know that we will see her again some day.

She was a great cousin who was a pal from when I was a little boy and she would take me to Elizabeth Lake. She always looked after me. Later in life she became a pal to my parents, her aunt and uncle Cleo and Al. Every Thanksgiving her and Harry would come down to Florida and spend the week with them for Thanksgiving dinner.
Kaye had a wonderful sense of humor I can always remember her laugh. She was always reaching out and giving to her family and friends. She will be sorely missed.

Even though life has separated us. When I see a picture or have a memory of all the fun things we did at your house growing up. I will know it's you reminding me. Of the words of encouragement you gave me helped me along my way. If I forgotten to show my gratitude. I'm thanking you now. But I guess you've known all along. How much you meant to me...to all of us...How lucky we've been...How blessed I've been to have you in my life. I will miss you, but I will not say goodbye...only see you...
