We will miss Ms. Mae vvery much. She was a very special woman and it was a privilege for us to have her as a neighbor. She was an inspiration to everyone she met and her kind and generous soul touched us all. When I lost my father at age 80 and was visiting with her during this sad time in my life; she smiled and told me... "How lucky for your family that he was able to spend so much time with you." When I lost my brother to cancer and spent the last 3 days at his bedside, she said "How happy he must be to have you next to him." This is how we felt about her, very lucky and happy that she was a part of our lives. Our lives are richer because she touched our souls. Our prayers and condolences to the family, I know you will miss her.

I just wanted to let the family know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. You have been great to her, and I appreciate you, for the weekly visits to Tresssie.... Hope you are all keeping together and trusting in God. Since that is what Miss Tressie would have wanted for sure.

Take care and God bless you!
