Garden City was hit with its own bad news this past week when it learned of the passing of Kay Thompson. Kay lived in Garden City for many years and raised her family here. She wa active as a member of the Board of the G.C.PTA at Stratford School and again at the High School. She encouraged others to become active also and when some of her children went off to College and her parents became in need of more care she took them into her home. Kay also took a job at the G.C. High School and worked there helping students for many years. She had several medical problems lately and passed away at Winthrop-University Hospital on Friday, January 22nd. She was pre-deceased by her parents, her husband Charles, and is survived by her children and grandchildren. Our thoughts and prayers go out to them in their time of sorrow and also to the many people whose lives she touched here in town. Kay will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
