Kay Anita Sacco

Kay A. Sacco age 75, of Canton, passed away peacefully on Saturday, October 12, 2024 in Burlington, VT. She was born February 12, 1949, in Canton, the daughter of the late Richard A. and Janis (Kohl) Miller. A proud 1967 graduate of Perry High School, Kay built a remarkable 30-year career as a Bookkeeper at Shonk Tuber, where she was known for her precision, reliability, and the caring relationships she built with her colleagues until her retirement in 2014.

Kay found joy in life’s simple pleasures – peaceful afternoons by the pool, the satisfaction of solving crossword puzzles, and most importantly, the company of her cherished friends. For 73 years, she was a beloved fixture in the Canton community before beginning a new chapter in Burlington, VT, to be near her daughter. True to her outgoing nature, Kay quickly became a treasured member of her new community, forming meaningful friendships while pursuing her love of jigsaw puzzles and social activities.

She is survived by her daughter, Michelle Sacco and son-in-law Christian Campbell of Burlington, VT; she is also survived by extended family in Ohio.

The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the dedicated staff of Ethan Allen Residence, whose compassionate care made Kay’s time in Vermont comfortable and fulfilling.
