Kay's life centered around her faith and her family. She took great pride in raising her six children and caring for grandchildren as they grew up. She found pleasure in cooking for family and friends, loved her crafts, and enjoyed trips to the casino. Kay was a member of Our Lady of Victory, Legion of Mary, and the Italian American Society. She held many different positions in these organizations.
Survivors include her children: Annemarie Hovey, Cathy (Phillip) Andresen, all of Davenport, Maryann (Mike) Litz, Omaha, NE, Louis (Lisa) Iannuzzelli, Jr., Hoffman Estates, IL, Michael (Lori) Iannuzzelli, Elk River, MN, and Gerard (Jennifer) Iannuzzelli, Palatine, IL; fourteen grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.
In addition to her husband, she was preceded in death by her parents, siblings and her faithful dog, Bella. May they rest in peace.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church.
The Iannuzzelli family would like to thank the staff at Senior Star and UnityPoint Hospice for the compassionate care given to Kay.

We are saddened to learn of the passing of your dear, sweet mother. Although our chats were few in the 25+ years of being neighbors, they were very memorable. She always had me laughing with her 'say it like it is stories', and her smile was unmatched. Rest in Peace, Kay.

Sincere condolences to ALL. I never met Cathy but her son Michael ran circles around me on the Badminton Court. Drive On!
