Aunt May will be missed dearly. She was such a wonderful woman, gentle and caring. She never missed a beat. She kept me inline and took care of me. May she have peace now with her sisters.

God Bless I love you aunt May you’ll be missed.

Alice, Sean and David, Stephen, my heart weeps with you on the loss of your mum/grandma.

"Auntie May" (and 'Uncle Billy') are such a huge part of my earliest and best childhood memories. My love of cabbage water was thanks to Auntie May. My first pet? Joey the budgie (a birthday present from Auntie May and Uncle Billy).

I'm so thankful that we were able to reconnect. She will be sorely missed.

Sending love and light to all of you xx
