I will really miss Kay. She was a wonderful Christian lady who truly loved the Lord and people. She served as the treasurer of our Sunday School class for many years and was involved online until a couple weeks before her passing. I loved her like a mother.
I have known Kay since I was 14 years old. I love walking up to the house and saying hello and was there when Jack was born. Robert Alexander and I would argue over who was going to hold Jackie next. I will miss one of my “Mom’s” and her quiet counsel. Have fun rejoicing with Bill, my mom and dad, Betty and Charlie Hall, Charles and Helen Damron, and many more.
To Kay’s family,
I heard the sad news from my cousin Randy Dustin. My heart is heavy with sadness for her family. I didn’t know Kay personally but she was so helpful with our Withrow family. My aunt Janet and aunt Katherine always talked about how sweet Kay was. My condolences goes out to her many friends and family.
