Besides being the most kind woman we have ever met, Mae also has more than 100 years of life experiences. There aren't many things we enjoy more, than sitting near the fire, and listening to our Gran talk about things that have happened during her lifetime. A 100 years! May God bless her and keep her well for many years to come. In honor of Mae Tuohy, here is a random short list of things that have been invented since her birth in 1916:
