Family and friends meant a great deal to May. May was born in Glasgow, Scotland and came to Winnipeg in 1955. She worked for Eatons and then Air Canada retiring after many years of service. She loved to travel and visit family and friends, always having her camera on hand taking candid pictures of everyone. She also volunteered several years ago at the Golden Links Lodge. May loved to knit and over the years, her creations were warmly received by friends, family and charities. May also had a passion for doing jigsaw puzzles. Her coffee table would always be covered with bits and pieces of puzzles. May was a warm, generous, kind and loving sister, aunt, great-aunt and friend. The family would like to thank the doctors, nurses and staff at the St. Boniface Hospital and a very special thanks to her family doctor, Dr. Roy W. Smith.
