Kay Ellen was known by many. She was always able to make a connection with whomever she came in contact with. Her patients, her peers, her friends & family were all so fond of her. Her humor and wit will be sorely missed by all who knew her.

She also leaves behind her great nieces Kaelin & Isabella Havens. We would be remiss no to mention the "Rat Pack", her lifelong friends.
