I didn't know Kay long, certainly not long enough, but I already considered her a very dear friend! Always that beautiful smile and kind words. She will truly be missed and my deepest sympathy to Larry and her family and friends. Fly high, Kay!!

Kay was one of the sweetest ladies I ever met. We sang karaoke together the past several years. She was a very special friend. I especially loved making beaded jewelry sets for her as she always wore them. I will miss her dearly.

Kay was a lovely lady, one of the first of Geary's relatives I met. We had a wonderful vacation trip to Arkansas with their family one year. She was a wonderful mother to their 5 children and kind. I never heard her say a bad word about anyone.
