Kay was born to Alice and Charles Ritmire on March 16, 1936. Kay and her twin brother Ken, brother, Louie, and sister, Beverly, enjoyed their youth growing up in Minneapolis.
Kay’s love of horses and passion for trick riding professionally at rodeos led her to the love of her life, Don Murray. They were married December 1, 1956, and moved to the farm in Stacy in 1966, where they raised seven children. Kay was a beloved school bus driver for Chisago Lakes School District for nearly 20 years. She also enjoyed gardening, volleyball, and she loved to dance and even taught line dancing. She cherished her travels across the west with her husband. She especially loved spending time with her family and friends.
Kay’s unwavering faith blessed all who knew her through her endless prayers. Her unconditional love and forgiveness is the glue that keeps her family bound together.
