Dear Penny and all of May's family,



May was a wonderful neighbor and always had great concern for those around her. My late husband and May used to talk over the fence frequently and I know he enjoyed their conversations. May will be missed and I send my thoughts and prayers to the family. Peace and love, Deb Bento

To May's family.



I offer my deepest sympathy in the passing of this wonderful woman!

She lived in the home to my front yard. She was always so cheerful,graceful, and kind. I always remember her with her dog in the back yard. She was one beautiful lady both on the outside as well as the inside. I was saddened to see the cars there yesterday as I knew what that meant. I know she was away for awhile and then came home last week and I know she wanted to be here....

I will miss seeing her outside but know she is in a better place as she lived such a beautiful life and touched all that knew her!
