A Selfless Educator
One of Miss Kay’s most endearing qualities was her selflessness. She consistently dedicated her time and energy to others, often placing their needs before her own.

Honoring Miss Kay’s Wishes
In accordance with Miss Kay’s wishes, her family has decided not to hold formal memorial services.

A Charitable Legacy
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to a cause that was close to Miss Kay’s heart. Her dedication to community improvement makes any gesture towards charitable work a fitting tribute to her enduring legacy.
