My condolences to Kay's family and friends. Unfortunately my only memories of Kay was the time we came to the ranch in Dripping Springs to visit when we were kids. Kay's mother and my father were cousins. I'm glad to see how much she accomplished with her life and I'm saddened at her passing.

Kay was a wonderful long time friend who had a significant impact on me, the profession of physical therapy, and on too many individuals to mention. I will miss her sense of humor, laugh, quick wit, and true love for helping others. My deep and sincere condolences to her family. May you rest in peace, my dear friend.

I will never forget seeing Kay right after her biopsy in March. She was sitting up in the hospital bed looking as healthy and chipper as could be. She fluffed up her covers a little and said "You know.. I think I could talk to a few clients right now!" and she meant it! This was only the second or third time I'd been around her. I was already impressed but that did it right then and there. What a truly amazing lady Kay Cannon was. I would have loved to have met her sooner. She was such an inspiration to me. We had some great talks in March when I spent time with her and again in July. She really made me think. I will definitely miss her.

always with love..Dorothy

Kay,

I am already missing that smile of yours that conveyed warmth, with intelligence and integrity.

I will miss your deep knowing of any issue that matters to coaches, to leaders and to sentient human beings.

I will miss how you talked with such love & reverance about Lynn who I also love.

I will miss knowing that you are physicially walking the world with us.

I will miss our future but always hold you in my heart.

Love...Dorothy Siminovitch
