Ed & Kathy, so sorry to hear that Mae passed away. Now she & Mom are having a great time up in Heaven! I just found out today. My sister said you said she went downhill quickly after her stroke, so I guess it's a blessing. We know how you feel, but remember she loved & was loved. She was a wonderful woman. We will be praying for all of you.
