Kay Marie Danielson

Kay Marie Danielson, 82, passed away Tuesday, December 1, 2020 at the Mission at Castle Rock Rehabilitation Center surrounded by her loved ones, both in person and virtually. They spent sacred moments reminiscing and expressing love. "Grandma Kay" wore herself out being a mother and grandmother and will be missed. 

"Grandma Kay" was born on March 11, 1938 in Holmen, Wisconsin, the daughter of Arnold Casberg and Verna Otilda Theige. 

Kay graduated from Holmen High School and the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point. She graduated with degrees in Math and Music and sang throughout her life in choirs, including "Messiah" in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She worked as a teacher and then as a data processor at Wisconsin Gas Company until her retirement in 1997. She was the treasurer of the Town of Saukville, Wisconsin. She relocated to Green River, Wyoming from Wisconsin in a brave move when she was 75 years old. 

She enjoyed music, reading, Jeopardy, and spending time with family and friends. Kay was a die-hard Green Bay Packers fan, and her home donned the green and gold. She made delicious chili and lasagna, and shared meals with others. She weaved hats with her time and donated many to members of the community.
