She was the loving and devoted wife and soulmate of Graham Hudson for 59 years. Kay was the daughter of the late Alex and Leila Snedden of Almonte.

Pre-deceased by her brother Earle (Marilyn) Snedden, she will be mourned by her brother Sandy (Marion) Snedden, her sister Beth (Brian) Keating of Kentucky and sisters-in-law Gwen (late Allan) Taylor and the late Marion (Trevor) Hawkins. Kay was a teacher by profession first teaching in a one room country school house and later at Walter Zadow Public School until the first of her five children arrived.
