Mae was born in Gary, IN, and attended Lew Wallace High School. Her favorite place to be was in the kitchen. She was excellent at cooking and baking – especially those Italian cookies we all loved. She also enjoyed watching tennis and old westerns. Mae was greatly loved and will be missed dearly by all who knew her.
