My employees and I will miss seeing Mr. Mayes, driving his old truck, come rambling up to our warehouse to check on everyone and to see if there was anything he could do for us. His bright outlook, gentle nature and old-school manners should be an inspiration to anyone who wants to be loved and respected and remembered. I am proud to have known him, and I extend sympathy to his family.

My heart goes out to Deacon Theodore Mayes' wife, children and the entire Mayes family. I have known Deacon Mayes and the Mayes family all of my life. Brother Mayes was always a very positive role model as a Christian, Masonic brother, Korean War soldier, friend, and mentor. I feel that a part of me has died with him, and I share your pain. May God bring you peace and comfort. Deacon Carol Louis Lawrence
