    Neva and Family, My heartfelt sympathies.
    Kay extended a kind welcome to her new neighbour. She shared her love for her family, her home and this area. She told stories of Jack and Ted planting the trees. Kay expressed gratitude for her long time neighbours and visiting nurses that helped her stay in her own home until very recently.
    Kay was certain that Jack was waiting for her and she longed for their reunion. With Gods’ grace, their Angels have brought them together again for etnernity.
    Respectfully,
    Sandy

    I was saddened to hear of Kay’s passing. I will miss our visits and chats. She loved to talk about her family and friends and always asked how things were going with me. She showeed a great interst in others.I regret that I never did take her out for that shopping trip to London that we had talked about, just to get something new and see how fashion had changed. Her health failed greatly this past year and once she moved to the LTC facility, I didn’t see her again. She will be rejoicing with her reunion with Jack. My sympathy is extended to her family

    To Kay’s family:
    My condolences. I got to know Kay in her later years of her life. I drove seniors to dining on Tuesday and we delivered meals from the villa.
    Kay shared some of her personal thoughts and problems of living by herself. I am sure that you will miss her.
    Sincerely,
    Donna Webster
