The love and support expressed by the friends and family show how much Kay is missed. I offer my sympathy and condolences to the friends and family and pray that the God of all Comfort and Tender Mercies (2 Cor. 1:3,4) be with you all during this time. May the promises written at Isaiah 25:8. Encourage you. Acts 24:15 gives hope that we could see her again.

Kay was a beautiful lady. I was known as the "pool lady" who would wave and talk to her on Tuesdays when I was doing the water classes at Sunset. In every card I would send to her, I would tell her how her beautiful smile always brightened my day, and that she was always in my thoughts and prayers. I know she is finally resting in peace in God's arms.
