After a short battle with both colon and liver cancer, Kay has left us to be with Carl in a better place. She passed away quietly and peacefully in her sleep while holding my and Sue's hands at 9:55 a.m. March 3, 2026 at Ed's House. Her sister Rose, cousin Kathy and best friend Mary were all by her side as well. Pre-deceased by her husband Philip Carl Grosjean and by brother Michael Callahan.
She will be lovingly remembered by her son Terry Grosjean (Susan Bridgman). Loving step mother to Kim Bergen (Bill) and Dawn Brow-Jones. Devoted sister of Thomas Callahan, Rosemary Callahan and Susan Callahan. Cherished grandmother to Jessica Grosjean and Rachel Grosjean (Alex Tubbe), Justin Jones (Mallory), Shane Jones and Richard Bergen (Kaytee). Great grandmother to Natalie Bergen, Harper and Jayden Jones.
She worked at Bird Archer in the accounting department for over 30 years. She loved tending to both her vegetable and flower gardens throughout the summer at our home in Grafton.
My Mom was the sweetest, kindest human being on the face of this earth. She adopted me when I was 5 months old and always told me that she picked me and all the other parents just got who they got. I am a very lucky man.
She loved her granddaughters, Jessica and Rachel more than what I could ever put into words. They were truly her pride and joy.
There are too many family and friends to mention individually and thank from the bottom our hearts. I couldn't even begin to name every one for fear of omitting just one person that has touched my and my family's life in one way or another. To everyone, I cannot express my gratitude enough now and in the future.
Rest easy my sweet, sweet mother. I have loved you since the day you took me home and I will love and honour you until the end of my days.
There will be a visitation at MacCoubrey Funeral Home, 30 King Street East Cobourg on Saturday March 14th from 10am-1pm. Funeral service to follow here in our chapel at 1pm.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Eds House Northumberland Hospice Care Centre in her memory.
Terry and Family, Sorry to hear about Kay. She was a delight to work with and I have many fond memories of the old Bird Archer days.
Terry and family. Deeply sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. Very touching tribute you wrote.
Rosemary & family My sincere condolences , hold your memories close, Kay was a wonderful person & will be missed by all who knew her . RIP Kay 🙏
Kay “gramma Kay” to all of our kids you where very much loved and will be tremendously missed I enjoyed working at Viceroy with you but you were a part of our family long before that and I am sure Mary will miss her golfing partner I laughed at your smiles even when you where not feeling yourself and you acknowledged our stories by saying “ I can still hear you guys” rest Kay until we meet again
Terry, Rose & family: I am so sorry to hear of Kay's passing. She was such a sweet lady & will be missed. My thoughts are with you at this sad time.
I met Kay through her and my friend Mary and got time to know and enjoy her sense of humor, generosity, and kindness . We exercised , gambled, competed and laughed together. Rest well my friend.
Sweet, sweet Kay how I miss our days together at Viceroy! I am so glad I got to visit you Sunday and see your sense of humor still shining through saying you couldn't sleep because you might miss the gossip! That made my day! You always made everyone feel like they belonged and that you genuinely cared for them...for that I thank you! You will be so missed and I am sending my love to all those that held you so dear!
