Kay was a very well known lady within the Community. I have fond memories of her at the store growing up as a child.

Kay was always positive, she was always classy and she always, always thinking of others before herself. She would always ask about my girls and want to hear what they have been up too.

Condolence from Marie Dafoe on January 6th, 2015 7:34 AM

Dear Don, Dorothy, Jean Marie and families

Aunt Kay was a gracious and love filled person. Many of my memories as a child centred around our road trips to Lucan and in most cases ended up at Aunt Kay and Uncle Jack’s home with Jean Marie and I playing in the huge doll house outside.

The Good Lord blessed both she and my mom with good genes so that we could benefit from their loving presence for so long.
I am babysitting right now in Connectiut as both Allan and Charlotte are away and sorry I can’t be there with you to celebrate the end of the Revington siblings here on earth and a warm goodbye to a truly lovely lady
You will be in my thoughts and prayers
Love
Marie and Bill
