<div itemprop="description">(nee Bradford) <br>96 years, passed away peacefully on August 31, 2016 at Banwell Gardens. Beloved mother of James, Michael (late Linda) and Stuart (Diana). Cherished Gramma Kay to Bill, Kristie Sabga (Ian), Victoria, Matthew, Ronnie McManus, Teresa, Candice, Cassandra (Michael) and Breanna. G.G. Kay to Declan, Kieran, Helena, Aubrey and Avery. Predeceased by sisters Norah (late Phil) and Audrey and brother Jack. Kay came to Canada on the Queen Mary from Lincolnshire, England in 1946, along with many other War Brides. In 1952, Kay was left to raise her 3 sons on her own. She settled in the town of Tecumseh and found employment at Bal-Robin Shoes for a good number of years. Kay, like many other people in Tecumseh, also worked at Green Giant during the harvest season. In 1980, Kay became the “security tenant” for Essex Housing Authority for the building at 11934 Arbour. She held the position for 25 years and made many friends with the senior residents. The family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to all of the staff at Banwell Gardens for the exceptional love and care they showed Kay for the past 9 years. As per Kay’s wishes, a private family service was held at Marcotte Funeral Home (12105 Tecumseh Rd. Tecumseh 519-735-2830).
