Kay was a close friend of mine and will be sadly missed. I was having lunch with her when she received her first call regarding lung cancer. She pulled through it along with the second re-occurrence. Unfortunately her lungs could not overcome the CoVid - 19 virus. There are many who will miss her smile. RIP Kay.

Stupid Covid! Kay - love you and miss you so much. You will live on in my heart forever. Our laughs, tears, inside jokes...I can still hear you laughing! You were such a warrior woman. And your heart so pure and sweet. Rest In Peace and love my dear friend.

To the family, I am so sorry for your losses and send you so much love. You are continually in my thoughts.

Memories of friends from long ago, never far from my mind. Marikay was always so kind, and I felt so lucky that she would be my friend back in the early days..playing four square, hollywood and hopscotch, she was such a good kid, and i recall she had the most beautiful long hair, and never a cross word. Prayers and condolences to family and friends who have been blessed to have her love and light in their lives, and who will keep her legacy alive.

I've only known Kay a short while, during her recent fight with lung cancer I was hired into her team. When she got back to work, it was like a breath of fresh air hit the team. She trained me on duties of the job for months and was always an absolute treat to work with and speak to. I wish I had the opportunity to have known her better, but from the time I spent with her, I know she will be heavily missed. My love and sympathy goes to those closest with her during this time.
