Kazue (Yogo) Key

She joins her husband John I, her parents, and sisters; Kagio, Sumiko, and Harue.

She will be dearly missed by her brother; Mitsuo Aoyama, her children; Akemi, Earnest, John II and his wife; Lupe, her grandchildren; Samantha, Rebekah, John, Jenelle, and many nieces, nephews, and special friends.

Kazue was born in Aichi-ken Aichi-gun, Japan, to Kinzaburo and Suzu Yogo. She married John Key in 1962 and left Japan in the summer of 1964 when the US Air Force stationed them at K.I. Sawyer AFB, MI. She spoke very little English at the time, but learned quickly.

Kazue’s joys included playing bingo with her crew and going to the casino where blackjack was one of her favorite games. She loved spending time with friends and family around the dinner table, sharing events of the day and teaching life lessons.

Visitation will be begin at 12 noon and will be followed by a funeral service at 1 pm with Pastor Glenn Caron officiating. Interment will take place in the spring in the Gwinn Cemetery.
