May lived her Christianity every day. She quietly served others without expecting recognition. She volunteered at a nonprofit clothing ministry, rocked and cared for newborn babies in the hospital nursery, served on a bereavement team comforting families in their darkest moments, read books over the radio for the blind, and faithfully worked the election polls because she believed in doing her part.
She was adventurous, fearless, and curious about the world. She traveled to places many people only dream of — Hong Kong, Thailand, Africa, Italy, Greece, and beyond. She embraced new cultures, new people, and new experiences long before it was common to do so.
May will be remembered for her outrageous sense of humor, quick wit, adventurous spirit, her love for tennis, unwavering faith, and the way she made every story unforgettable.
In lieu of flowers, expressions of sympathy may be made in her memory to Cardinal Hospice.
Anderson Funeral Home and Crematory is serving the family.
