Kay was one of my first friends I met when my family moved to Jerome st. She lived on the next street ... Ruby St. We shared our lives as best friends until November of 2018 when she passed away from cancer. Kay moved to Hale, MI but is buried in Saginaw at Forest Lawn with her family. Too many memories to list as she will be missed by all of her friends.
