May 8, 1939 ~ November 17, 2020

Our dear mother, Dolores Kay Beesley, joined the angels in heaven after struggling with Alzheimer’s, on November 17, 2020 in the comfort of her home. This beautiful soul leaves a giant hole in our hearts and in our lives. Kay was born in Boise, Idaho on May 8, 1939. During her high school years she met Jerry P. Beesley, whom she later married and they had six children. 

Kay enjoyed many things in life: art, music, nature, animals and especially family. Kay was a devout Catholic, which helped her stay grounded and gave her guidance throughout her life. In her later years, she was blessed with the gift of grandchildren and great-grandchildren whom she loved dearly. 

She was preceded in death by her husband Jerry P. Beesley, oldest daughter Jeri Lyn Beesley and fur babies Bailee and Mya. She is survived by her sons Michael and Mark; daughters Mary, Theresa and Barbara; grandchildren Jenna, Alex, Amanda, Nick and Connor; and great-grandchildren Oaklee, Kaysen and Owen. 

A graveside service was held at Fort Douglas Cemetery on December 2. A memorial Mass will be held at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church at a later date. May she rest in peace. 

A special thanks to Beverly and all the hospice staff and HomeInstead caregivers for all the comfort/care they provided.
