Obituary: Kay Nelson
25, 1945- 2, 2015
Eulogy
"I thank my God upon every remembrance of you." Philippians 1:3
As family and friends of Kay, we come together today to celebrate her life. We cannot do this without acknowledging the tremendous inspiration Kay has been to all of us during the last three years. She fought through 35 chemotherapy treatments, 1 radiation embolization, 1 back surgery, 3 hip/leg surgeries, and all of the attendant side effects, as well as many other hospital procedures, with incredible faith, grace, dignity, and that beautiful smile on her face. That is all behind her, and Kay now has an even bigger smile as she is with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Kay knew and taught that life was a series of many choices. Some big, some small, but all have positive or negative consequences or trade-offs. As we recount her life and share a few memories, lets also focus on a few key choices.
Kay chose Faith. Her faith was formed at an early age. It started with her family and developed as she attended church and school at Immanuel Lutheran in Columbus, Nebraska. That faith became a growing, important treasure to her. Some of her most cherished, lifelong friendships were formed at Immanuel. Not only was she an outstanding student there, she played on all the sports teams offered.
Family. Her early years at home were spent growing up on the Meyer and Asche farms north of Columbus. Holidays and special occasions usually found her mom, Ethel, dad, Milton, and entire Asche/Meyer family gathered at Granny Meyer's house. She would tell you that she was assigned the worst of the chores, as her brother, Jim, was always in town playing baseball or some other sport. Jim would probably have a different opinion on the matter. She learned to drive a tractor when she was ten. By age twelve, her way to get even with Jim was to "borrow" his car, pick up close friends, and drive around the countryside in Platte . All went well until the girls got the car stuck in the mud at Lake Babcock. This story is a favorite re-told by both family and friends still to this day.
Kay chose to be a good student and be active. She moved to Columbus with her family and attended junior high and high school in town, where she continued her straight "A" record. She was especially active in choir, drama, dance, and cheerleading and as cheerleader captain her senior year.
She chose to prioritize making and keeping friends. She obviously had many friends, but she had a special group of nine Columbus High School girlfriends who were and remained so dear to her and to each other. All but one were able to meet up in Vail last fall for a wonderful reunion. Kay would always bring together her close friends from different parts of her life. You knew it was really about having her good friends becoming good friends. This was just so Kay.
Kay and John chose one another, and a 50+-year love story was born. Kay and John met in high school. Much as he tried, and he tried hard, Kay wouldn't go out with him much in high school. But for some reason we will never know, she agreed to travel from Omaha to Lawrence, Kansas during her first year of college to attend a Phi Gam party at University of Kansas with John. The trip cost twelve dollars, round-trip to Kansas City, on the train. For the next three years, Kay would take the train, or John would hitch-hike to Omaha, every month or so. married 13, 1966. This relationship is one both they and their family treasured and benefitted from enormously as they were beautiful role models as a couple.
Just before marrying in 1966, Kay graduated from Nebraska Methodist of after achieving the highest scores in Nebraska history on her state board exams. Again, that choice of hard work and dedication paid off. She practiced nursing for thirteen years. She especially enjoyed her position as a health advisor for a family practice group. In the meantime, Scott and Susan were born, and Kay retired to become a full-time mother and homemaker.
Obviously, Kay's ultimate love and priority was her family. Kay was a wonderful mom, involved in all of the many things moms do at home, church, and school. Scott, Ann, Jenna, and Garrett; Sue, Lee, Alex and Sophie, her beloved children, their spouses whom she fully embraced, and her grandchildren were a constant source of joy. Whether in personal trips or gatherings, phone, email, text, or Instagram, she was so interested in their activities and marveled at their growth and accomplishments. The same can be said about her brother Jims family, the Lewis family, the Meier family, her nieces, her nephews, her goddaughters, as well as all her cousins and their families.
Kay loved to travel, first with her family in the US, then, later to many magnificent places around the world. There were many highlights, but two worth mentioning might include the following: after a car trip that covered most of the mountain ranges of the west, 6 year-old Sue said, " once you've seen one mountain, you've seen them all," and much later while on a cruise with good friends, spending two days in a major typhoon with 35-foot seas, still on a ship off the coast of China. The most special travel of all occurred at whatever place her precious grandchildren could be along.
John's career took the Nelson family from Omaha, to Minneapolis, Des Moines, and then in 1991, to Denver. In retirement, they also enjoyed six months each winter in Scottsdale. At each new stop, Kay quickly made a new house a home and made many new friends. John would tell you that if it were not for Kay, he probably wouldn't have any friends at all. continued...
