Rogers, Kay Ann (Ashby) (02/11/39–01/08/92). Kay Ashby attended Grinnell for the first three years of college. She was a leader in student government (Student Council, 1957-58 and Main Hall Baffleboard, 1959-60). She was active in the Women’s Recreation Association and its Board. She lived in Main and Haines Halls.
Kay married Grinnell class mate, Charles Raymond (Ray) Rogers. In their 30 years of marriage, Kay devoted herself to their family. Her greatest joy was raising their three sons–Stan, Kyle and Kent–to be kind, gentle and generous with their families and in their work as she was. Kay also made it possible for Ray to try to make a difference by “doing it his way.” As Ray said, the world is better because of her. Kay was survived by Ray and their three sons.
