Journey Home, a hospice house in Bartlesville, was a passion of Mae's. She
was instrumental in helping to make it a reality and devoted many volunteer
hours to its success. One of her beliefs was that "No one should die alone"
so she sat by many bedsides as the inevitable occurred to many people. She
was a true servant in the name of her Savior.
