 Kay was well known for her baking, bread, rolls, pies, cakes and cookies.  She loved baking for her family and would always have something delicious on hand. Other favorite pastimes included making jigsaw puzzles, playing scrabble, reading, knitting and crocheting.  Her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren always received knitted or crocheted gifts at Christmas, including Angels, hats, mitts, slippers, scarves, sweaters and afghans.  She loved giving these gifts to close friends and relatives. 

 Kay loved music, gospel, bluegrass and country.  She loved singing at family gatherings, church, at senior's homes and the Young at Heart program at the Pentecost Church.

 The family would like to express their appreciation to Dr. Annabelle Dufour Lamontagne,  Dr. Jindal and the many Doctors, Nurses and Home Care staff for their compassion and excellent support both while she was in the hospital and her final days at home.
