No words I can say could remove the void you are feeling now from the loss of such a wonderful lady. I know Mae loved each of you with all her heart. Her heart's desires were to serve the Lord, be a good wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She fulfilled each of those with a glad heart. May God be with you in the days, weeks and months ahead. She is with her Heavenly father now and enjoying pain-free rest in paradise.

Giles, Children, Hassel and Family,

My deepest sympathy, thoughts, and prayers are with you in the loss of Mae. I greatly enjoyed going to curch with her for many years.

It was the 12th day of November,
The trees were in a dormant stage
When God called Mae home
For she had lived her days.

I know everyone will miss her
For that is the way of life.
One thing to be thankful for
She was a good mother and wife.

We enjoyed all the visits
Each time we went to their home.
The memory of their family reunions
Will always live on and on.

Mae was so kind and nice.
She would greet you with a smile.
If we will all live right,
We can meet her on the other side.
