I had the pleasure of meeting Mae about a year ago and we quickly became friends. She was a sweet, sweet lady. I will miss her dearly, and never forget her.

There is not a way to accurately describe the kind of wonderful person Mae was to everyone - you were a stranger in her home but once. We will miss you!

I have had the priveledge and honor to both know and work for the Vallone family. The first time that I met Mae and Ed Vallone I immediately was made to feel like one of the family and that is exactly as her children, Eddie, Linda and Phil made you feel as well. She possesed true warmth and sincerity. Mae Vallone was as genuine as any one person could possibly be. I will always remember her fondly. My wife Christine and I extend our sincere condolences to the Vallone family for their loss.

I'll always remember the last time I visited you. We were sitting in your living room, and you realized your dentures weren't in. You quietly turned around, slipped them in, shot back around, and flashed that smile i'll never forget. You always knew how to light up a room, and you had some of the best stories. Although I have no new stories to look foward too, ill keep the memories of you locked in my heart always. You are a part of my family forever. I love you.
