It was a pleasure to know Kay and work with her at Met. She always had a way of producing quality results and keeping things moving in a positive direction - all the while flashing that great smile and giving words of encouragement. Heaven now has a very special red-haired angel!

Chuck and family, Kay was one of the mainstays of WISC. She always had a smile on her face. It's so sad, but a blessing too, to know she fought a brave long battle, that made me always have prayers for her on a daily basis to keep up the fight. She was a tough cookie. God Bless and many prayers continue.

A better friend I will never have. Katydid I love you. If there is anything I can do for any of you, please let me know.

Dear family: Kay's last name may have been "Small" but she was BIG on life and fighting the battle. Everyone who knew her and worked with her in the MetLife days will feel the void for a long time. May you recall the warm memories to get you through the down days. God Bless

While it has been a long while since I last saw Kay, I will always remember the support she gave me during some difficult days towards the end of my employment at Met. The pats on the shoulder, the words of encouragement, and the smiles that lifted the uneasiness were frequently there for me. She was one of the smartest, most willing to share, and available women at Met. She was a strong mentor. The love and devotion she had for her children were awe inspiring and made me want to follow her footsteps. I have missed her friendship. I will miss her friendship.

Dear Chuck and family it is with great sadness that I am typing this. Kay and I worked together for such a long time and when she first got sick she displayed such an up beat attitued even when I got to visit with her during the 2007 Met reuion, she still made me laugh and didn't dwell on herself. She fought a brave fight for a long time and now is at rest.

Chuck, Jason, & Stacy, You know my heart goes out to all of you. May you find comfort in knowing Kay is pain free and now at peace. She has to be one of the most strongest persons I know, she fought hard and never gave up. And did all that with her wonderful smile. May God Bless each of you during this most difficult time.
