Kay was not only our neighbor growing up but a friend as I got older. such a sense of humor, have so many memories of her ,can still picture her sitting in her backyard on her swing. she was one of the friendliest and kind person you'd ever meet. and her smile was contagious. I'm sure she's dancing in heaven on the streets of gold, looking for a beach! Rest In Peace dear Kay
