Never meeting a stranger, she spread so much love and laughter throughout her life. She always said, "I love you" and had to hug everyone before leaving a room.

Kay worked at Western Electric for several years before moving on to AMP/Tyco Electronics where she retired. Throughout the years at both, she met so many amazing people who became more like family than co-workers or friends.

Her grandchildren Brandy Conrad, Julie Conrad, Zac Conrad, and wife Brittany Conrad, Stacy Cook-Hurd, and husband Zach Hurd.

As well as her brothers (including brothers-in-law) Bill "Bubby" Edwards, Steve Harper, and Doug Rudisill.
