services will be held on Saturday at 11:00 a.m. at Enslow Park Presbyterian
Church with Rev. Chris Perkins officiating. Burial will follow at 2:30 p.m.

WV, the daughter of the late Ruby Keeney and Frank L. Coach. In addition to
her parents she was preceded in death by a brother, Frank D. Coach. She
graduated from Sherman High School and Marshall University with an Associate
Degree in Marketing. Kay was very proud of being a member of Alpha Chi Omega
and in later years served as Financial Advisor of the Alumni Chapter. While
at Marshall University, Kay made a number of lifelong friends who have kept
their friendships active. For fifty plus years, the group of ladies met for
their monthly “Bridge Club” and fun. The family would like to thank each and
every one of them for their love and kindness throughout the years. Kay and
Frank have been active members of Enslow Park Presbyterian Church since 1963
and wish to thank them for all the help and support they have provided
through the years. Kay was a member and past president of the Huntington
Junior League and Woman’s Club, a member of PEO, and truly enjoyed helping
others. She worked in the Financial Office of Cabell County Board of
Education until her retirement. She is survived by her loving family,
husband, Frank Lambertus, II; her children, Michele Marie (Jack) Weber of
Charleston, WV; Frank Lambertus, III of Scottsdale, AZ and Laura Kay (Keith)
Webb of Charleston, WV; four grandchildren, Bruce Hagley of Florida, Riley
and Allyson Webb and Jack Weber of Charleston; a brother, Matthew Coach and
wife, Linda of Damiansville, IL; and mother-in-law, Ernestine Lambertus of
Des Moines, Iowa. When we think of Kay, we will always remember a loving,
caring wife and mother who always had an ever present smile on her face and
a kind word to say. Those who wish may make memorial contributions to Enslow
Park Presbyterian Church for the Frank and Kay Lambertus Christian Education
Scholarship Fund, Hospice of Huntington or the Alzheimer’s Association. The
family will receive friends on Friday from 5-7 p.m. at Beard Mortuary,
Huntington.
