Bonnie "Kay" Keene age 64, of Benton AR went to be with our Lord and Savior on Dec. 17th, 2024. She was born October 15, 1960.

She was preceded in death by her parents Gene Simmons and Jane Elizibeth Fortner, and her Grandson Stephen Richmond.

Kay is survived by her sister and best friend Tammy Gossage, and her siblings Doug Simmons, Shari Williams, John Fortner, and Karen Fortner. Her sons Brandon and Terry Richmond, and her bonus children Melinda Richmond, and Chris and Nikki Cline. Kay was also survived by her grandchildren, Dalton, Hannah, Cloey, Ray'ven, Katelin, Brandon, and Brayden.

Momma Kay, as she was affectionately known by others, was deeply loved by everyone she encountered. Never meeting a stranger, she had a natural gift for making everyone feel welcome, and always showing kindness and warmth to those around her. Her hospitality was unmatched, as her door was always open to others. She was steadfast in her relationships, a loyal friend, and a trusted confidant to all who had the privilege of knowing her.  For those who knew Momma Kay, she wasn't afraid to tell you how the cow ate the cabbage or that she'd beat you down like doo doo brown. Those were her favorite things to say. Lastly but most important, she had a close relationship with Jesus Christ. Even when her memory was gone she knew who her strength was!

Kay's service will be held Sunday Dec. 22nd, at 3pm. at 411 Fairview, Malvern AR. 72104. All are welcomed to come and celebrate her one last time!
