Betty married Harry Kay and was blessed with a beautiful son, Thomas David Kay. (1956 -1991). Through Tom, the family gained Kelly Doyle Gasset, Rick Gasset and Trey Gasset. Through Betty's amazing experiences, she met life-time friend, Will Carlton who we are proud to call family.

Betty, the always-ready planner, lived each day as though it had at least 35 hours in it. But, Betty always had time for others. Betty showed never-ending generosity and love to her family, friends, church and countless charities. Betty gave all of herself for others. Betty lived life to the fullest, was fun and kind. Betty is our hero and will be deeply missed.
