Condolences Left For Mae Mueller
Aunt Mae, the best godmother anyone could ask for. You always worked hard but you enjoyed life too. Hope there is dancing in heaven.

My Dad, Cy Weissert, and Mae were 1st cousins. Our paths would sometimes cross over the years, and we connected at the Moose when she and Sertella both were active there. I remember being invited to her 80th birthday party at the Moose. I got to meet both Glen and Steven then. Please accept my sympathy in the loss of your Mom. She was a special lady,
