Kay met and married Merle West in 1934. They had two daughters, Marilyn and Frances and moved to Lake Stevens in 1947, where she and Merle cleared their property and built their home on Grade Road. She worked at the Lake Stevens Post Office for more than 20 years. After retirement Kay enjoyed volunteering and giving back to the community and she was active in Ebenezer Lutheran Church. She assisted in setting up well-baby clinics in the county. We all could expect a gift of her handmade slippers, cap or afghan at Christmas. She was in charge of the Lake Stevens blood drive, volunteered for the Red Cross and made hundreds of items, including baptismal crosses, and many items for various bazaars at church.

Kay loved spending time with family and friends. She and Merle traveled many times a year to Leavenworth where Merle's family lived. Kay enjoyed her grandchildren. She loved taking them on trips and delighted in their accomplishments. She loved preparing meals for her family and friends and was known for her delicious pies. Kay maintained and nurtured life long friendships. In her later years, she loved playing bingo, taking trips to Reno and watching the Mariners.

Kay is survived by her daughters, Marilyn Ronnestad and Frances West; five grandchildren, Richard, Cathy, Mary, Theresa and Christine; and three great grandchildren. Her passing will leave a void in our hearts.

A graveside service will be held at 12:00 noon on Wednesday, July 30th at Evergreen Cemetery in Everett.

Arrangements are under the care of Solie Funeral Home.
