David Kayse Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Ratterman Brothers Funeral Home - East Louisville on Dec. 19, 2023.
David Brian Kayse, 64, husband of Donna Carol Kayse, went home to eternal rest on Sunday, December 17, 2023. His pain and suffering are over. He fought to the end and gave himself to our Lord Peacefully. David was born on September 23, 1959, to Mary Ann Steiner Kayse, and Donald Joseph Kayse, Sr. David was a great person, with many friends who will miss his presence, laughter and strength. He was an avid fisherman and a master of bargaining at yard sales.
"Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure."
Left to cherish his memory are his wife and best friend of 46 years Donna; his brothers Donald Joseph Kayse, Jr. (Karren), and Mark Alan Kayse (Kim); his sisters Cheryl Ann Kayse, and Julie Gail Vatter; his sisters-in-law Debbe Sue Murray Denny (Stephen), Cheri Murray Green (Barry); his brother-in-law Gary Allen Murray (Jeannie); as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.
A Memorial Mass will be held on Wednesday, December 27, 2023 at St. Aloysius Catholic Church, Pewee Valley. Fr. John Stoltz will officiate. Visitation will be held on Tuesday, December 26, 2023 from 4:00pm - 8:00pm at Ratterman Brother's Funeral Home, East, 12900 Shelbyville Rd.
