Condolences

Condolence From: Nance, Vince, and Taylor
Condolence: So sad to hear of Kay's passing. We fondly remember Kay and Lew both from the various gatherings over the years in Stoney Creek. I know that mom (Ann) would like to extend her condolences as well and would echo my observation in noting what good sports both Kay and Lew were to take part in our rather boisterous Fleming clan get-togethers when we would descend on Kilbourne Ave with the guitars, children, and dogs in tow. Each of them always arrived with a smile, a friendly hello and a hug for each of us. They were enthusiastic about the live music and I recall Kay singing along on many occasions. We continued to enjoy Kay's company as she travelled solo after Lew's passing, making the effort and taking the time to drive out to Stoney Creek from Burlington on her own to join us for our Fleming gatherings. She had great determination and spunk to continue to trek out on her own after her life partner was gone. We regret that we didn't manage a trip to Burlington's Red Lobster with Kay for lunch in 2017 as we had intended to but were unable to get everyone's schedules to cooperate. The next time my mom, Ann, my sister, Rhonda, my daughter, Taylor, and nieces, Ashley and Carly, manage to schedule a luncheon and converge on Red Lobster, we will surely raise a toast to Kay's good humour and enthusiasm and wish her spirit well. We will have some good laughs in her honour to be sure. Love to you all.

Condolence From: Cam Jackson
Condolence: On behalf of the entire Jackson clan we wish to express our deep appreciation and love for our beloved Auntie Kay. Our Dad and Uncle Buzz served in the same unit during WW2. Upon returning from Europe Buzz met and fell in love with Auntie Kay. They married first and then became best man and maid of honour for our parents Don and Pat Jackson.The wedding party arrived for the simple ceremony with Buzz driving and our parents in the rumble seat. Thus cementing an amazing life long friendship between our two families.As kids we remember trips to Grampa Joe's farm with Kay preparing an amazing feast from the summer kitchen. Summer trips to Chambly Que. with extended camping trips to Vermont,New Hampshire and Maine. Memories of Auntie Kay taking Rhonda and I to Madame Tousaud's wax museum, the midget palace and mass at the Cathederal. We were so happy when Kay chose Burlington as their new home when Buzz retired from the air force. He built a trailer in Quebec and parked it in our drive way as he and Kay planned the next adventure in their lives. It was wonderful having the two families so close.Kay and Buzz built a wonderful life together and raised an amazing family. Kay was a strong and loving person, a one of a kind. The matriarchs were the last to go and now Kay can make that special wedding party complete. The boys have caught up on all their war stories and the girls are ready to party...they have earned it. Love to you Auntie Kay and give them all a kiss from us Jacksons.
