Kay, My "Favorite Sister" Kay saved my life when I must of been 3 or 4 years old. Mom was driving the old 1948 flat-bed truck that had made Kay cry when she saw that it had no bed. There were no seatbelts in vehicles in those days. It was Mom, Kay and I in the cab. A quick left turn flung my door open, and Kay grabbed my arm which kept me from flying into the street. Kay was a joiner. She took modern dance lessons including the can-can. She was in Job's Daughters. She worked on her high school newspaper; I think as a reporter. She was in Border Collie Hearding clubs and went to church. Kay was a survivor. Born during WWII. She moved several times as a "military brat". She was far behind in math in California compared to Nebraska, so Mom had to help her make an F turn into an A. She made the Honor Society to boot. When she moved from the hospital to the nursing home, I was sure she was going to pass away within a week. But no! She probably set the record for how long somebody lived with Pulmonary Fibrosis. Kay had turquoise hair in front, in her later years. My granddaughter said Kay looked like the younger sister, because of that. She is 8 years older than me! So when I told Kay that I was a great-grandma....twice, she agreed that I must be the older sister. We laughed. Kay gave playful pet names and nick names: Tubby Sebastian On It Bomb, Panda Bear Bee Bee Bon Bon Stinkey Inkey Poodle, Mommie (the cat). Walking down the alley, a grown women, she was calling "Mommie, Mommie", as she was trying to find her cat. That gave us a laugh for quite a while. Kay was always there to call to blow off steam, and she reciprocated the favor. Kay walked her dogs everyday before it got too hot outside. That is where she met Wanda. Wanda said at the end, Kay talked a lot with Wanda about being grateful to Jesus. The last time I talked to Kay on the phone was shortly before she passed. I couldn't see her that trip, she was feeling lonely and excluded. I said, "if I never see you again in this life, I will sure see you in the next." Sleep sweet, Favorite Sister. Joni Schooler Bailey
