She was a beacon of resilience, a loving spirit whose laughter echoed through the lives she touched. Cherished not just for her warmth, Kay was known for her indomitable personality - a beautiful blend of humor, compassion, and unwavering support for those around her.

Her life was a celebration of them, a living legacy woven with love that spanned generations. Mom and Grandma, the titles she wore with honor, reflected her commitment to family and her joy in shared moments.
Dance was her language, and the sounds of blues and old-school music were the beats to which she joyfully moved. In the rhythm of life, Kay found her expression, joyfully immersing herself in the sounds that brought her peace and happiness. There was an undeniable spark in her ability to make any gathering feel like a celebration, lighting up rooms with her vibrant spirit and infectious laughter.

Friends and strangers alike found solace in her good heart, often warmed by her humor and engaged by her playful jokes. Kay radiated love and acceptance, her smile a comforting presence for those who sought companionship or simply someone to lean on.
As we gather to honor her memory, we remember the essence of who Kay was - a friend to many, a rock to her family, and an embodiment of joy. Surrounded by love and laughter, let us pay tribute to a truly remarkable woman whose impact on this world will forever resonate in our hearts.
