Kay was the thread that held her family together. She was a loving, mother, grandmother. She loved animals, especially her dog gypsy. She loved spending time at the beach. Kay was a kind and compassionate person who loved unconditionally. She will be dearly missed by her children; Shane (Janette) Melanson; Shelly Melanson and Kelly Melanson, all of Springhill; sister, Darlene (Frank) Kantor; brothers, William (Jean) Burgess, Tom (Alta) Burgess, David Burgess, Curtis (Sharon) Burgess and Kevin Burgess; grandsons, Damon & Rory at home, Colton Chapman, Springhill, Justin Chapman of Halifax.
