I was so sad to learn about Kay. She was a great person to work with in the old Dairy Mart days and she will always have a special place in my heart. My deepest sympathy goes out to your whole family. I wish I would have known earlier that she was sick. You are in my thoughts and prayers in this time of loss.

Owen, Dale, Renee, and Mike - you are in my thoughts and prayers. It hurts to think of all the many times I sat at the Lautenschleger kitchen table talking to her and Owen for hours...and now she has gone on ahead of the rest of us. I have missed her these many years...and I know she will now be missed by so many people who love her - both family and friends. She was a wonderful person...a true friend to so many people. She influenced my life in a truly positive way, and I will never forget her. I pray God will give you all comfort in your loss and joy in all your memories of Kay.

To say the least I was very sad to see this in the paper, I wish I had known she was sick. Kay was a good friend, wonderful wife!! mother and g'mother, we were "ole" bowling buddies and I would come to her house and she would work on my hair (gutsy woman :o) God blessed your family with her, now he needs another angel.

I will always treasure my memories with Kay. We have been close friends since 1974 and even though I relocated to NC in 1999, we remained close friends all these years. My prayers and thoughts are with all of Kay's family and friends who she left behind to leave this life and go to a much better life in Heaven.
