Beth I wanted you to know how very sorry I am for the your loss. Your mother was a very special lady with a heart of gold. I am so thankful that I was able to spend time with her in the nursing home. She loved our Lord Jesus with all her heart and she will forever be in my heart. Kelly, Ashley and Amy and their families were blessed by her precious love. What a joy she is having singing in heaven with her husband. Love and blessing to you all. Vicki Davis

Judie and Beth, Our sincere condolences to you and your family. Your Mom was loved so much by the McKay's. She was such a hospitable lady, always inviting us into her and Uncle Calvin's home. We shall miss her but her remembrances will live on--especially the pie she never failed to serve! Love you all! Katherine

I am sorry to hear about the death of maw maw McKay. I know she is in a much happier place and is now at peace. My daddy and I, Jeff DeCuir, loved her very much. Even though she was my step grandmother, she treated me just as her own, as she did her other grandchildren, and I loved her as my own as well. My favorite memory of us, was when we would pick pecans from her pecan tree, in her backyard, when I was real young. She was very sweet and loving all the years I knew her. She deserved to be at peace, dancing with the angels.
