Charlotte Kay Kellogg, 78, of Elwood, Nebraska, passed away at her home on July 22, 2024, in Elwood.
She was born on September 27, 1945, in Yankton, South Dakota, to Leonard and Minnie Layne. She attended public schools in South Dakota. Kay was united in marriage to Larry Hunt on November 18, 1967, in Lindy, Nebraska until his passing on April 11, 2005. She found love again with Hal Kellogg and the two were united in marriage on April 18, 2009, in La Barge, Wyoming until his passing on May 4, 2020. Kay lived in many different states, but her heart was always in Wyoming. She dedicated many years working for the Eagle's Club and held many titles such as manager, bouncer, and bartender.
Kay was a tough, understanding and strong-willed woman. She firmly believed in being who you are, and that family was everything. She was the glue that kept her family strong, always had a listening ear for those who needed it and her house was known as the comfort spot for her grandchildren when things got rough. Kay could be stern, but she could also sweet and caring. She loved to crack a good joke and always made sure to lighten the mood during hard times. She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends, camping up in the mountains, dancing, and going on a nice cruise around town while listening to her favorite radio stations. Gardening was a great passion for her and always had the best tomato plants and flowers. If she wasn't outside gardening, then she was inside cleaning; her house was always spotless.
Those left to cherish her memory is her daughter, Theresa Fotheringham of Lexington; her grandchildren, Pam of Lexington, Jon and Jenn of Elwood, Matthew of Cozad, and Ashley of Kearney; 11 great grandchildren; two great-great grandchildren, and two sisters, Barb (John) Schneider and Janet (Dennis) Mines of Yankton, South Dakota; as well as several nieces, nephews, extended family and many friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Leonard and Minnie Layne; husbands, Larry Hunt and Hal Kellogg; and siblings, Robert (Monica) Layne, Betty (Robert) Sherman, Shirley (Charles) Broz, Leonard (Vera) Wayne, and Alice (Everett) Bush.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Friday, August 23, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. at Reynolds-Love Funeral Home in Lexington.
