While her work history Is impressive. I think there Is something else we can learn from Mae Croak. You know. sometimes I think that in every immigrant family there must have been at least one saint. one person always relied on for strength and love and support. Aunt Mae was that saint to her 8 brothers and sisters. to her 15 nieces and nephews. to her 47 grand nieces and nephews. and to the 22 great grand nieces and nephews so far born to her family. Aunt Mae is a bridge to the past for the youngest of them. and she was diaper changer. babysitter. and nurse to most of the older ones.
