I always remember Kay as my favourite bus driver. She was always so kind and patient with us crazy high schoolers, full of adrenaline, going to various sporting events. She was such a kind spirit and so warm and friendly every time. With all the kids she drove year in and year out, she remembered my name, and I hope that was a good thing ;) Kay will be missed and my thoughts and prayers are with her family. Wish I could be there to celebrate her life.

I have known Kay for most of my life. She has always been one of the most caring and kind people that I have known. Her friendship and kindness are my treasure from her. Her smile and her wonderful laugh were gems in my treasure chest. Be at peace, my friend.

So sorry to hear of Kay's Passing. We will miss her infectious smile and warm heart. I cannot remember ever seeing Kay not wearing a smile. To be around her was pure joy. I loved seeing her and Dick together...what a match made in heaven. I hope the Eglet Family knows what Kay meant to us all, and the memories will be with us forever! God bless you all.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. The times we shared as our families grew, the stories told, and the fun working with you all continues to create a smile as we think back on our times together. As we now live in Pomeroy with "Eglet Neighbors" the smiles continue. It is a small world we live in, yet you can be proud of the large legacy Kay left for others. She will be missed but remembered in many ways.
