Cori and Robbie, sincerest prayers and love to both of you and the rest of your family. I know how difficult this time is, but try to gain some comfort in the knowledge that she is now at peace. As time passes, it will become easier to remember the happy times and to smile although now the pain is great. Knowing how wonderful you two are, I can only imagine how magnificent your mom has been. I know how you will both miss her. Know though her life continues in the amazing daughters she raised. Love always, Jackie

The NAHS Class of 1958 will always remember Mae as a dear and loving friend. She brought sunshine and happiness to all of us during our school years and thereafter. She was such a joy to be with!
We share in the families sadness but are happy we had a chance to be a part of her life.

To Mr. Rocha, Robbie, Cori, and Linda,
Mom was a spark in every room. I remember the first time I met her as a teenager, and she was right there, telling you like it was. There was the Karmin Ghia. Later, in N A, the little pug,(that I alwasys wanted to kick) and the wonderful Christmas eves! The huge spreads of food in the dining room. Dancing and stories in the living room. What time is midnight mass?? Wonderful spreads and the baklava!!! How great it was for me to have a special "take home plate" at the end of the evening. Soo gooey!!
She lived a full life and did most of the things she loved to do. She admired her husband and adored her children and grandchildren. It was clear that she was proud of you all.
We will all miss her, and each have a special memory to carry forward.
With love,
Jeff & Cheryl
