Aunt Mae as I Knew her was a kind and sweet person, unfortunately the last time I saw her was at my mum’s funeral. Her kindness, and helpfulness toward me and my children at a bleak time in my life will always be remembered. May her accolades along with numerous Social and Economic contributions to this country be remembered by the Bahamian People. My deepest condolences to those that loved and new her.
