In her earlier years, Kay loved to shop – especially for the young ones.  Remembering all their ages and sizes was a talent she excelled in.  She was also an avid bingo and card player with her daughters and caregivers. Kay worked for 21 years at the St. Vincent Convent with the Sisters of Charity of the Immaculate Conception.

Her family would like to express their sincere heartfelt gratitude to the nurses and staff of Mayflower Unit.  Their dedicated passion in holding phones to her ear for several hours, to the shared warm blankets and hot drinks extended to the family outside and to the overall compassionate care to our mother.  We thank you!
