She was the oldest of 6 children including 3 brothers and 2 sisters. She married Joseph W. Daugherty on July 3, 1938 who preceded her to heaven on January 30, 1996. Kay was best known for her exuberant energy, unwavering love for her family and for her Church. She was always concerned more for others than herself. She and Joe were instrumental in helping start Memorial Drive Methodist Church. In 1953, they moved their membership to First United Methodist Church where she was an active member of the Joynor Class, and volunteered as a greeter at the information desk and worked in the Church Library, The Bookworm, until she moved to the Baptist Village of Owasso, where she began attending the First Methodist Church of Owasso. Her community service includes starting the Blue Birds in the Tulsa area, counselor and Director of the board of the Camp Fire Girls, started the Eastgate 4-H Club and was active for 20 years, received the Oklahoma 4-H Alumni Recognition Award. She was asked to be on the Board of the East Side YWCA and was given a lifetime membership for her work. She also found time to be the first recording secretary of the OSU Mom's Club. The second year she was elected President. Outside of her church, her family was her pride and joy. She is survived by 3 children, daughter Diana Joy and husband Jim Harbolt, of Oklahoma City, grandsons Brent Harbolt of Oklahoma City, Todd Harbolt and wife Janet of Oklahoma City, great grand daughters Halle and Cassie, son Chuck Daugherty, wife Patty, grandson Joshua, of Owasso, and son Fred Daugherty of Wylie, Texas, and grandsons Nate of Dallas and Jonathan, of San Marcos, Texas.

Tributes & Memories

To all the Daugherty family - Kay was one of a kind! There was never a time you were in her presence that you didn't feel like you were the center of her world. She made everyone she met feel special. Every moment of her life was lived with class! As a 4-H leader and neighbor she will be remembered as one who stood above the others.... She loved everyone and was loved by everyone!

Susan Olzawski Barrett

Kay was such an amazing woman & so inspiring living her life to the fullest with such energy & panache. She was always so caring & compassionate toward her family and to so many others whom she dearly loved, taught & shared. Though we will miss her so much, our wonderful memories of each moment spent with her will carry us through this grieving time. Honoring her ascent into heaven, to be with her Lord & maker is truly her ultimate achievement.
