Kay worked for several years at the Burlington flower shop (now Petree's Florist) before becoming affiliated with the Post Office Credit Union and finally served as the manager of the U.T. Credit Union, retiring from there. Kay was an avid reader, crossword puzzle enthusiast, and a Jeopardy junkie. She also played a mean game of Scrabble and was an accomplished bridge player.
