She grew up in Pomfret, MD with her four siblings: Julia, William Jr., Carolyn, and Dale. Kay attended Charles County Public Schools, and in 1982, she graduated from McDonough High School.

After graduation, she worked various jobs before landing a job with the Federal Government.

Kay began her government career as a Supply Clerk at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Indian Head Division. She was a dedicated employee for over 35 years who rose through the ranks and became a Contracting Officer and Team Lead for Division 026 in the Contracts Department.

Tribute Footprints in the Sand Lord, You said that once I decided to follow You, we would walk side by side through life; but when I needed You most, I saw only one set of footprints in the sand.

The Lord replied, “I love you and I would never leave you.

During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints it was then that I carried you.”

Tribute In memory of our wonderful

Sister

We treasure all those memories The ones we hold so dear The things we shared together And when we shed a tear Because we had some brilliant times Hence it is very true Smiles are never far away When we think of you You were very special And we want to say That it really breaks our hearts You are not here today And no matter how we try We will Always miss Our beautiful and loving And amazing Sis…
