Death of the Rev. Kay Fryman

We give thanks for the life and ministry of Deacon Kay Fryman who died on January 27, 2026. In a note to the congregation of St. John’s, Florence, where Kay served on staff, the Rev. Corey Prescott, Rector, wrote, “With a heavy heart I share that Deacon Kay Fryman has gone to be with our Lord. She had a recurrence of cancer this past year and decided several weeks ago to stop treatment, her hope resting securely in the promise won for her by her Savior and ours, Jesus. I know this might come as a shock to many who weren’t aware of her recent battle with cancer. As a church we stand ready to grieve with those who grieve, and to be for one another the hand of God that wipes away every tear.”

A service of Christian Burial will be held at 11 a.m. on Monday, February 9 at St. John’s Church in Florence and a reception will follow. Please keep her family and loved ones in your prayers.
