Early Life: Kay was born February 13, 1949, in Tooele, Utah, a daughter of Merrell R. and Fern Gull Wiley. As a child, she relocated to Provo with her family, where she spent her adolescence. While attending Provo High School, she made the cheerleading squad and set about the vibrant business of boosting morale and supporting the team as they played toward their victories on the field.
