    I felt so sad when I heard Kaye was gone. We worked together at Wake Tech in the Adult Education Center for a number of years. She was so dedicated to the students, so smart, kind and caring. In recent years, we went to lunches with our retired group. I so admired her bravery facing her health issues these last years. Your mother was a blessing, Shannon and Carly. Peace and comfort to you and you families. Jo Lamberto

    I am deeply sadden by the loss of Kaye. No words can ease the pain and heavy hearts for the loss of a mom, M-I-L ., grandmother and yes a dear friend. Kaye has been a very special friend to me for app. 50 years not only in the work place but, in everyday life. We shared many laughs and tears together, she was always there for me thru good and not so good times. I pray God will give each the strength and courage to move forward remembering the love and good times shared. Kaye touched many peoples lives and her positive spirit will be remembered . Carly and Shannon may you be given peace and courage during this difficult time . My love to each

    At 1 point in my life, I feel like I spent more time at her house than I did at my own. She was such a giving and loving person who put your needs before her own. I love you and I am sorry that I never got by to see before you left for your eternal life. ❤️❤️❤️🪽🪽🪽

    I worked with Kaye at Mallinckrodt Medical in Raleigh many moons ago and we kept in touch. Kaye was an inspiration to me as I started my career in the pharmaceutical industry. So kind, intelligent, ethical, always willing to offer words of wisdom. She will be missed by many. Sincere condolences to her family.

    The last time I saw Kaye was at Linda Babcock's memorial service. It had been 20 yrs + since we last spoke. We just picked up where we left off. Kaye was lovely. Shannon and Carly, I have fond memories of your Mom. I wish you and family the best.
