I have known Dr. Kay since 1966. As a student at San Jose State College I worked for him. He was a kind man with a great sense of humor. I met him again when I joined the Master Gardeners of Santa Clara County three decades later and he still remembered me. He was an amazing soul and will be missed. I will always remember him fondly.

Dear Bill's family,
I worked closely with Bill in the Master Gardener program on the hotline and newsletter, they were some of my favorite times. 
We would not only talk about gardening, but would also joke about my coyote,(a yellow lab).
He was my friend and I will never forget my time with him.

Our heartiest condolences go out the Kay family. It is an honor to have known "DOC", the man who gave for his country in the Armed Services and the Veterinary care, he gave to those who could not speak for themselves. 
Wishing the Kay family solace in knowing the countless lives "DOC" touched and affected, directly and indirectly.

 Najla Abraham and family

Deepest and sincere sympathies to the Kay family. May wonderful memories of Bill rest forever in your hearts. Thank you Will for the opportunity to meet such a special person.

Deepest condolences to the Kay family. Dr. Kay made a early positive impression on me, I remember going with my mother, Laverne Tibbits Wise to his Tully Rd office in the 1950's.
Mom's family also farmed on Tully Rd. 
We followed him when he moved his office to Lincoln Ave. Thank you Dr Kay!

We have been neighbors for 15 years and enjoyed getting to know Bill.  He was a kind neighbor, generous to us, sharing many delights from his garden, his stories and views on life. We are sorry for your loss.  Know that your Father will be missed by many.  Mary & Tom Korn

I'm sorry to read about the recent passing away of Dr. Kay.  Some of our family pets have seen him in the past. I send my condolences to the family.

The sweet memories of Bill Kay will live always in the memories of those whose lives he touched.  

He was the first Veterinarian my cats had when we moverd to Willow Glen in 1987.  They both turned belly up in his arms, on each meeting, for his gentle belly rubs. (My cats did not do that for me!)

Sincere condolences and profound gratitude to the family of Bill Kay.  His life is a gift.

My sincere condolences to the entire extended Kay family on Bill's passing. Thankfully his struggle with dementia has ended. Love to you all.

Kay Family I am saddened by this news as Dr Kay was a GOOD GUY!  I am indebted to him as it was his constant "ribbing" to me to finish my Engineering Degree at SJSU.  I did finish and he then moved on to "now go get a job". I did.  Your Dad really did make a difference in my life and gave me a great perspective on life.   My best regards to the Kay Family

To the Kay Family,
My deepest condolences to all of you.  I have had the pleasure to visit your Father when Walking my Bernese Mountain Dog "Oliver" daily for almost 2 years until we moved.  We so much enjoyed our daily visits and friendship.  He was a wonderful man and someone both Oliver and I will miss dearly.  He always was so happy to see us and made us smile.  He had such an incredible way with Dogs that they just wanted to be with him.  "Thanks for the great memories and Friendship  Dr Kay.... "

Your Dad was one of the best guys ever and a central figure in many fond memories.  He was a great friend, an amazing man and a terrific Vet.  We loved him and will miss him.  Please accept our condolences and best wishes.

As a fellow Master Gardener from the class of 1989, I would just like to say that Bill will be missed.  My thoughts are with him and all of you, his loved ones.

My thoughts and prayers are with his children.  In 2001, Bill was my mentor in Master Gardeners. His smile and jokes made it very easy for me.  I treasure his memory.

Dear Kay Cousins,  
Please accept our sincere condolences and know that Uncle Bill and you all are in our prayers. I will always treasure the many memories I have of the time we all got together so long ago. Your Dad was always ready with a smile and a joke and always made time for us, rugrats though we were.  I understand the impact of Alzheimer's and have faith that he is now in a place where all lost memories are restored. With love and prayers from this branch of the Volpe clan.

To the Kay Children and families, I express my sincere condolences. It was with such fondness that I will always remember your father. Losing someone this special is heartbreaking. I feel so very blessed to have known both your wonderful parents. What made your father so special, was his ability to make everyone feel that they mattered. What a truly special human being he was-  HUGE HUGS to you- Fondly remembering- Stephanie Sears Rippey

To the Kay family, I am very sorry for your loss.  I have been Bill Kay's CPA for about 20 years and he was one of my favorite people.  We had some very amusing conversations over the years, mostly about child rearing and I was the recipient of much sage advice. I appreciated his wit and miss him greatly
