Brenda, Joey, and Jena

So sorry to hear about the loss of your mother, she was a very special to so many people during her lifetime. Mae loved the Lord with all her heart, and lived it every day. I thank God everyday for your mother, she changed my life and many others, and she will always live on in our hearts. Just remember we will see her again in heaven for those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Praying for all of you during this difficult time, God be with you all. Until we meet again.

Mae will missed. She was a special lady and it was an honor being in the Sisters cancer support group with her. She was a strong Christian and an inspiration.

Aunt Mae as we grieve you it's going to be hard to understand

The difference between Yesterday and today for you

Yesterday you were here,
and today you are gone.

Yesterday you were in pain,
and today, your pain is just a memory.

Yesterday you had to fight for your life,
and today you have been given a new one.

Yesterday you had to worry about death,
and today you know that there is nothing to worry about.

Yesterday you had to wonder when you would go,
and today, you know.

I will never be able to imagine what you've been through but
I know that God was in control and he cared for you.

He has seen your pain and your tears as they fell.
Our father in heaven is the only one that could tell.

I know that at times life didn't seem fair
but God didn't put on you more then you could bare.
and you kept the "Faith" in whatever you did because you knew
in Gods house there was a special place just for you.

God didn't promise us days without pain, laughter without sorrow
But God did promise us strength for the day and comfort for the tears
and light for the way.
And for all who believe in his kingdom above.
He to will answer your faith with everlasting love.

He has sent a beautiful person to rest
God broke our hearts today to prove
He only takes the best

God knew you had to leave us
But he knew you would not go alone
A big part of us went with you
today when he took you home
To some you will be forgotten
To others you will be just the past
But to those that loved and lost you
Your memory will ALWAYS last.
