Aunt Mae was always there for us as we grew up. She would plan adventures from road trips to Castalia and the Blue Hole to camping along the Sandusky River. She was a big influence on me and my adult life. She had an opinion on everything and wasn´t afraid to let you know it. We were planning a trip to Tiffin early April to see her and we´re sad it´s too late. She will surely be missed!
