Our thoughts and prayers for the Foran and McCann families on the loss of Mae on Dec. 1, at the age of 85 years. Mae was the wife of the late Ervin. She was the mother of Brian (Stephanie), Dennis (Wendy), Barry, Audrey (Joey), Sandra (Dale) and Donald (Leslie). Ervin and Mae established the famous McCann’s Chips, which they ran for over 40 years in Quyon.
