I have fond memories of working with Mae in the Town Clerk's office at Edmond Town Hall.
I remember in the winter when it snowed she would call and say not to worry she would get us a ride. A little nervous but we always got there safe.

I have fond memories of working with Mae in Town Clerk's Office at the Edmond Town Hall and will always remember rides in the snow to work. She would always say don't worry we will get there and she would have someone pick us up and get us to the Edmond Town Hall.

My sincere sympathy to Mae's family. Having served with her for many years on the Newtown Visiting Nurse Board I experienced her knowledge and passion for important issues. I never met a more dynamic and energetic woman. Mae's passing is a sad loss for her family, friends and
community. God bless Dear Mae!

Mae is an incredible loss for her wonderful family. We have very fond memories from long ago of times spent with Mae & Bob. She was such an inspiration for so many. We still have a Christmas ornament she gave us many years ago, when we hang it on our tree every year we always speak of her fondly.
We know Mae will be greatly missed, but what a phenomenal life she enjoyed.
Bruce & Jan Love, Southport NC

Mae, the Lady in Red, was a wonderful woman with a heart of gold. Her love of Christmas I shall always remember. Her community service as the Town Clerk and work in the State Legislature, especially for the military and veterans will be hard to duplicate. She was especially proud of her husband and career Navy and Marine Corp sons. God bless you Mae. Thank you for your friendship for many decades. A military Bravo Zulu for all of your accomplishments. You will be missed. You long ago earned your Angel Wings of Gold.
