Mrs. Kay Lynn “Mama Kay” Pedigo-Norville, 63, of Galesburg, Illinois, died at 7:17 a.m. Friday, June 12, 2026, at OSF St. Anthony’s Medical Center in Rockford, Illinois.
She was born March 27, 1963, in Galesburg to Willard D. “Bud” and Beverly (Myers) Morgan. She married Michael Pedigo on November 14, 1980, and together they had two children. She later married Troy Norville on October 31, 2007.
Surviving are her daughter, Tori (and Casey) Allen of Poplar Grove, Illinois; her son, Trent (and Shannon) Pedigo of Galesburg; two brothers, Steven Morgan of Galesburg and Kent Morgan of Texas; three sisters, Brenda (and Kurt) Woodman of South Jordan, Utah, Karla Mayes of Galesburg and Karen Morgan of Galesburg; and five grandchildren, Clarissa, Delaney, Jordan, Lillian, and Jackson. She was preceded in death by her parents and one sister, Kathy Gibbens.
Kay worked as a waitress, bartender, and later as a home health care assistant, but most of all she cherished being a homemaker. Growing up, she was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Galesburg. She enjoyed gardening, crafting, and staying socially connected, especially through Facebook. Most importantly, Kay loved spending time with her family, including her beloved four-legged companions, Allie and Zili.
