Kaye and I have been friends over 30 yrs she taught me so much we worked together and never stopped laughing she remembered everyone’s birthday she said everyone needs a happy cake I’ve carried on that tradition and I will miss her so very much 💔🙏🏻💔
Kaye and I go a way back, when we were in school together, we were best friends and she eventually became my sister in law. As time passes we went our own way through family divorce, but we never lost that bond, although we did not get to visit as often as we would have liked to, but we watched our children grow up and become lovely daughters.
We first saw Elvis together, what a thrill, I was with her when she was Queen For A Day when we lived in California, we had such a wonderful time. We would put on a show for my 2 daughters, this was before you were born Kristi. such good memories. I could go on and on about our friendship, we were like sisters. My daughters Susan and Donna and my sister Sandra want to say thanks for all the memories, Kaye, gone but never forgotten

I had some good times with her through the years. I remember when Kristi got a Nintendo Wii and Kaye and Claudette came over to play it with us. We all laughed so hard watching them try to figure it out!
While I was going through some difficult times at home, she would come get me. We would grab some food and park somewhere and talk for a long time or sometimes just ride around for a while.
Mrs. Kaye will be greatly missed but it helps to know she is no longer in pain. I imagine my mom was there to greet her with arms wide open....
I met Kristi's Mom one time and she was a lovely and sweet lady
She was so lucky to have Kristi and the care and love 💘 that Kristi gave her.
Love. Dianne
We know her daughter Kristi Knight. She is such a wonderful person and we know Kaye was also to raise such a wonderful daughter.
