May was born Dec. 17, 1929 in Liverpool, England and came to the United States on Dec. 20, 1947 aboard the "Queen Mary." She worked as a secretary for the British Consulate in Norfolk, Va. and while attending her first barbecue, met Ensign V. H. WIEGAND - six months later they married. May was the love of Vic's life for 60 years until his passing. Vic always introduced her affectionately with 'this is my bride.' May enjoyed life as a Navy wife and didn't mind the many moves it demanded. She said she was used to it having moved five times before leaving England due to the bombings during the war. May and Vic participated in all the Navy Chapel programs as choir members and Sunday school teachers. After Vic retired from the Navy, they became members of Neshaminy Warwick Presbyterian Church where together they participated in the choir, teaching Sunday school and serving as elders. May also led a women's bible study group. May and Vic were blessed with the time to enjoy touring the U.S. in their RV, spending many hours exploring as well as time with family. May is survived by four children, Dr. Robert V. WIEGAND of Salem, Ore., Jacqueline M. RHOADES (Marvin KATZ) of Chalfont, Pa., Dr. J. Lee FISHER (Kim) of Key West and Cheryl A. WILEY (Brian) of Jamison, Pa. Known as Nana and lovingly referred to as Nan or Nana Banana, May is also survived by her ten grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. May was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Cmdr. Victor H. WIEGAND, USNR, and her beloved son, 1st Lt. Michael Scott WIEGAND, USAF. Services will be held in Key West. Memorial gifts may be sent to Neshaminy Warwick Presbyterian Church, 1401 Meetinghouse Rd., Warminster, PA 18974 or to Children, Incorporated, 4205 Dover Rd., Richmond, VA 23221-3267.
