Kay dedicated nineteen years of her life as a Registered Nurse at the Marion VA, along with experience in various nursing homes and private nursing. She was immensely proud of her status as a nurse, having graduated from Marion High School in the class of 1956 and earning her nursing degree from Indianapolis Methodist Hospital in 1959. Kay was a valued member of her community, being active in Christland United Methodist Church as well as the Mississinewa Order of the Eastern Star, Women of the Moose, and the Red Hat Society. Her interests reflected a vibrant spirit, and she enjoyed the company of many friends through these organizations.

Kay experienced loss in her life, having been married to Jerry N. Titus Sr. in 1959 until his passing in 1964. She later married Eldon "Ike" Eichorst in 1969, who passed away in 1972. She was also preceded in death by her brothers, James, Edward, and Royce Mills, and her sisters, Rita Conner and Joyce Hyatt.
