Not sure what to say?





I loved my Aunt May even though we moved to Florida in 1958. I last saw her when my father died in 1960.She loved to call me mikey. I'll miss her!

Mae was a wonderful mother-in -law, and a very hard working, strong, woman! She raised her family well,and always made everyone feel welcome in her home. Since my mom lives in Florida, I referred to her as my "Ohio" mom. I'll always remember her and keep her in my heart! She told me to take care of her son,(Danny), and I promised her I always will! Love and miss you, Mae!

I'm so sorry, that she has past. God has her in his arms now, and is loving her more than we can imagine. She's safe and free from pain, stress and she's with other loved one's who have went on, before her. I'm truly sorry for your loss, of such a wonderful woman. I pray for your tears to be washed away, and your memories be of great joy when thinking about her being reunited with her family members that went before her. You will see her again, I promise, because Jesus said so. God bless you all. Love you all
