I love hearing stories like that about my mom. May-Lou is such a great nickname for her. Thank you for sharing that. 💜
Mary needed a cap many years ago. I don’t remember why. She said, “Give me one of yours, you have hundreds.” I came in the next day with one of my favorite Gator caps. Ohhhhhh, the laughs we shared on the daily. I love her so.
I absolutely adored May Lou! She was so feisty, but so sweet. My sincere condolences to her family.
