  1. Iam so sorry for your loss. I so enjoyed talking with Mae as it was so apparent she loved her family and furry friends. May GOD BLESS you and your family always. Sincerely,

  2. I worked with Mae for several years. She was a no-nonsense type of person, but extremely kind and generous with her time, compliments, and heart. She always had something interesting to talk about and something interesting to read. She listened to me when I was struggling and helped support me through some difficult times and even gifted me with some books that she had enjoyed. Mae will be deeply missed.

  3. Dear Frank and family, Larry and I send our deepest sympathy in the loss of your lovely wife! God bless you at the sad time!
