I was so sorry to hear about Mae. I worked with your father Curtis at
the fair grounds. I remember when Mae always came to visit. If the guys were tied up I would take her around on the golf cart
and boy she just loved that. She was a pleasure to know. My deepest sympathy to your family.

I will always remember the many years of friendship our families had together. We kids were so fortunate
to spend so much time together growing up. They were always happy and fun times. May was a happy and fun person, and we always
felt welcome in her home. The Jumper family was such a big part of my life growing up and I'll always feel very grateful
and blessed for having them all in my life. Our sincerest condolences to Karen and Betsy and their families.

Dear
Karen & Betsy,
I am so sorry to hear, just today, about the passing of your Mother.
No matter the circumstances
of her passing, it has to be difficult for the two of you. I want you to know that your Mother and Dad remembered me with
a gift at my high school graduation back in 1958. I hope this message will give you comfort for many years.
Your
Cousin, Martha

I am very sorry for the passing of your
beloved mother. We have never met but my grandmother, Ethel, was her sister. My brother found her obituary and informed me
of her passing. May she rest in peace.
