Moira Elder Kaye, beloved wife, mother, Mimi, and teacher, age 81, was the only child of Thomas and Matilda Elder. Moira graduated from Trenton State Teacher’s College now known as the College of New Jersey. She was a lifelong member of the Catholic Church, most recently Sacred Heart Cathedral.
Moira is survived by her devoted husband of 56 years, Stephen V. Kaye. They lived in Oak Ridge where she dedicated her life to raising her children. She was much in demand as a substitute teacher and was well-known for the smiley face pillow she used to encourage good behavior. Moira played bridge with her girlfriends for many years. She was an amazing cook—her soups and stews were legendary.
Moira is also survived by her children; Moira (Dan) Ely, Steve (Dena) Kaye, and Matt (Caty) Kaye and her eight grandchildren Danielle, Cameron, Lexi, Jenna, Evan, Maya, Cazzy and Camp Kaye.
