Kay Madelon Seslar Weaver, 80, of Leonardtown, MD passed away on January 5, 2015 in Washington, D.C. Born on March 27, 1934 in Jeffersonville, OH she was the daughter of the late Avis Frauenknecht and Errette Seslar. She was preceded in death by husbands, John Oosterink, Graydon Cochrane, and Everett Weaver.

Kay is survived by her children Timothy Charles Seslar of Tucker, GA and Bill Oosterink of Leonardtown, MD; her daughter-in-law Stacy Oosterink, and grandchildren Christopher Seslar of Doraville, GA; Ashley Oosterink, Kylie Oosterink, Madelyn Oosterink , and John Bradley Oosterink of Leonardtown, MD and one great grandson.

She was preceded in death by her brother, Keith "Pete" Seslar, and is survived by her siblings, Max Seslar of Irasburg, VT, Annette "Tootsie" Cox of Warwick, RI, and Carol Cannava of Mission Viejo , CA.

Kay had many careers during her lifetime ranging from working with the Ford Motor Company's Tournament of Thrills where she and her brother Max were a team who crashed through a wall of flames. She was also one of the first female letter carriers in Philadelphia, PA. She drilled circuit boards during the technology boom in California and spent many hours waiting tables. She most recently worked locally as a cashier at McKay's Food Store in Wildewood Shopping Center.

Kay loved people, but more than that, she thrived on helping people. She would regularly go out of her way to help people who needed tending to due to an injury or illness – not for the pay (most times she wasn't compensated,) but because they needed to be helped.

For more than the past 10 years, she lived with her son Bill's family in St. Mary's County. "Grandma Kay" was always there to help around the house and often wondered why the family had such a big home when they were always too busy to stay there! Her grandchildren were truly the light of her life – she was extremely proud of everything they did, and was always the first to defend them when they needed someone on their side.

In lieu of a formal funeral, Kay wished for a simple gathering to celebrate her life. That event will be held on Saturday, January 10, 2015 at the Leonard's Grant neighborhood clubhouse between 2-5 PM. Dress is casual as she would not have wanted anyone to dress formally for her.
