With hearts full of love and sorrow, we remember Victoria Kay McGinn (née Koutavas), whose journey on earth began in Faribault, Minnesota, on September 25, 1958, and ended much too soon on July 12, 2026. Victoria’s life was a testament to quiet strength, devotion to family, and enduring kindness that touched all who knew her.

As a devoted wife to Jerome McGinn, Kay embraced life’s joys and challenges with unwavering partnership and love. Every moment shared with Jerome was marked by deep affection and respect, a union that reflected the harmony of two hearts in sync.

Kay's love for her family extended across generations and, weaving a fabric of connection that will remain forever.  Survived by Son Matthew Charles Gardner and grandchild Arian Charles Gardner. Siblings Nicola Carey, Stephen Koutavas, Katie Roti, and Carol Koutavas. Beloved husband Jerome McGinn
