GREENVILLE—Mrs. Kaye Howard Anderson, 61, passed away Tuesday, October 20, 2009. The funeral service will be held Saturday at 2 p.m. in the Wilkerson Funeral Chapel. Burial will follow in Pinewood Memorial Park.

Kaye was born September 15, 1948, and grew up in Denver, N.C., where she graduated from Rock Springs High School. On the campus of East Carolina College in Greenville, she met Greg Anderson, who would quickly become the love of her life. They were married on June 4, 1967, and have lived in Greenville and Pitt County since that time.

After the birth of her second child, Kaye found her calling in child care, and has been the owner and operator of Tomorrow's World, Inc. Child Care Center for over 20 years.

Kaye was a brave survivor, beginning her cancer battle at the age of 20, and enduring two other occurrences over the years before the fourth and final took her from us. She was a devoted wife, loving mother and beloved grandmother with family always her first priority.

She was preceded in death by her father, Sebe Dewey ‘S.D.' Howard, Jr., and twin grandsons, Harrison and Anderson Wood.

She is survived by her husband of 42 years, Gregory L. Anderson; son, Bradley H. Anderson of Ayden; daughter, Karen A. Wood and her husband, Morgan, of Raleigh; her mother, Melba Clontz Howard, of Denver; mother-in-law, Ellen B. Anderson, of Ayden; brothers, Alan Howard, and his wife, Kayron, of Denver, and Seab D. Howard, and his wife, Phyllis, of Raleigh; sister, Dayle H. Emanuel, and her husband, Nick, of Huntersville; brothers–in-law, George E.

Highsmith, and her husband, Bill, of Winterville, and Loretta A. Lee, and her husband, Boyd, of Greenville; grandchildren, Cody and Allison Anderson of Ayden, and Braden, Evan and Caleb Wood of Raleigh; and step-grandchildren, Ashlee Hodges and Courtney Manning of Ayden. She is also survived by five nieces and eight nephews.

She also leaves behind her extended family of the countless children she nurtured and loved who know her fondly as "Miss Kaye".

The family will receive friends from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday at Wilkerson Funeral Home.
