My father Wilmon Kinder adored Mae. Forever in our hearts. Condolences to all who loved her.
I spent a lot of my teenage years in the home of Dempsey and Mae. I never forgot how wonderful they were to me. I always tried to keep in touch with them. I loved them both.

It was with great sadness that Art heard of Mae’s passing. He has so many good memories of spending time with Mae and her sisters at candy pulls and playing bingo. He also lived with Mae and Dempsey when he was a teenager.he has very good memories of those days. We know what a close family the sisters are and how much they will miss Mae. Sending our love and deepest sympathy. Art and Mary Smith
