Just found out that Dana Key's wife passed away last month. Here is her obituary.
No more goodbyes.

ANITA MCDONALD KEY, a resident of Collierville, TN, was born March 31, 1959 in Memphis, Tennessee to the late Fred and Geneva McDonald of Memphis, Tennessee. She passed away Tuesday, February 21, 2012 of pneumonia at Methodist Hospital Germantown. She is survived by her children, Scottie, Andrew (Mallory), and Eli all of Collierville. She leaves a sister Cindy and her husband Wright and their children, Morgan (Lauren), Genna and Wright and a brother Fred and his wife Holly and their children, Mary Gene (TL), Buddy and Hayley. She also leaves two sisters in law, Jolyn Beaver and her husband David, their sons Nick and Zach, and Jamie Roberts and her sons, Ryan and Riley. She also leaves a father-in-law, Jim Key. Anita graduated from Ridgeway High School and attended the University of Memphis and Methodist School of Nursing. During this time in her life she also traveled extensively, served her Lord as a missionary in Canada and Central America and developed her artistic skills through knitting and weaving. Anita accepted Christ at age 13 and worked throughout her life to deepen that relationship and to serve Jesus by loving him and others. She was instrumental in supporting and encouraging her husband Dana and his extensive ministries until his untimely death 18 months ago. While her children were young, she home-schooled them, supported and encouraged them in their activities. She particularly loved hers and all children. She worked for a time at the Hope Presbyterian Preschool. When Dana planted and pastored The Love of Christ Church, Anita served as the director of children's ministry. One of her favorite accomplishments was that for many years while her children were growing up, she planned and hosted a neighborhood harvest parade attended by hundreds of children and their families. The festival included entertainment activities and refreshments for all ages. Anita loved this wonderful annual event. She worked for seven years along side the wonderful ladies at J.Jill in Germantown. A celebration service will be held Friday at 11:00 AM at Collierville United Methodist Sanctuary on the Square. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Compassion International, Colorado Springs, CO 80997
