For Drew, Georgia, and the rest of the family. We have many fond memories of Aunt May, and our sympathy is with you all on this, the day of the memorial service. We are sorry we cannot be there, as we are still in Texas and will be home in less than two weeks - we are in the process of selling our mobile here and moving out. May she rest in peace. Our prayers & love to you all.

My thoughts are prayers are with you Drew and all the rest of the family. We so much enjoyed Aunt May's company at our holiday gatherings and my daughter still remembers the day we brought Aunt May to her Kindergarten class to visit. She read a poem to the class about daffodils. May was so special to so many, and she left an imprint of the importance of kindness and spirit that will live on through us and all those children she taught along her life journey.

Drew - So sad to hear of your mother's passing, but know it must have been time. We have such fun memories of May & Mark at the lake. May was always so much fun and we enjoyed her hospitality and of course the notes all around the house. If she could have I suspect her last note would be Goodby and see you again.
