Kay, often described as vivacious and energetic, dedicated much of her time to volunteering for organizations such as the Special Olympics, Pioneers, and Mercy Medical Center. Her selflessness and kind-hearted nature touched the lives of many. When she wasn't lending a helping hand, Kay could be found pursuing her passions.

Kay also enjoyed the great outdoors, embarking on camping trips and motorcycle road trips with her beloved spouse, Richard Madsen. They created countless memories together as they explored the open roads, cherishing their shared love for adventure.
