My aunt Mae was my heart. She was the most precious dear person I know. She comforted me in my many times of grief . She was always there for me with a kind word and a loving heart. She loved me and my mother beyond words. She taught me the true meaning of what a friend is. I love her so very much. My heart truly hurts. I will miss her . I do know that my mama was there to greet her. I know she was very excited to see her again. Sissy , Wayne , and Debbie you have always been my family and always will be. God bless you and always be with you. I love you . If you ever need anything please call on me.

Jewel, Debbie, and Wayne, I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. The past few times I saw her was in the grocery store. We would always stop for hugs and catching up on the family. She (and y'all) will always be in our hearts and memories from growing up in the old neighborhood. Love y'all.
