Kay pioneered working from home in the 1950’s, typing labels for major mail-order catalog companies on her trusty Royal typewriter. Kay was an Executive Secretary with the Interthor Company in Broadview for many years. After retirement, Kay and Ron spent their winters in the Bradenton area of Florida for over 30 years. She enjoyed golfing, daily walks on the beach, floating in the pool while talking with her friends and the afternoon cocktail hour by the pool. She loved being with her grandchildren and would visit them weekly. The Chicago White Sox was a passion of Kay's, she rarely missed a game. Kay also had a love of animals and donated yearly to the PAWS Chicago foundation.
Private Services and Interment will be held at Mt. Carmel Catholic Cemetery, Hillside where she will be laid to rest in the Carey Family lot. For more information please call (630) 941-5860.
