I was shocked to read about Kay's death in the paper this morning. I had no idea that she had been sick. Its hard for me to imagine her as being that ill.In my memories of Kay she will always be remembered as the happy go lucky , fun loving , aunt that everyone wanted. When I was younger she was the one who took me places that I would otherwise never have had the opportunity to get to. We would go out to eat and other places like Forest Park, movies, water skiing, camping and such. Even though it seems like we would only get to see each other at family funerals, we still would talk about all the fun things we did when I was a kid. Aunt Kay was my favorite aunt. She was so full of life and so much fun to be with. Her smile always made you feel good. I will miss her even though we never spent much time together in the passing years. I always knew she was still here and that I had the fond memories that kept me connected to her. I'm so sorry that you have lost your mother but take solice in the fact that you will always have the memories.
