Someone has written a thesis on her work for an MTS degree. May was on missionary furlough from Japan in 1932. Missionary to Japan for 40 years. Before she died the people she had worked with in Japan, particularly those in the Shizuoka Eiwa school and college, and in the Yamabato institutional homes for the mentally handicapped, had nominated her for a Japanese government medal and award. The award is of the Order of the Sacred Treasure, with Gold & Silver Rays. This was approved in 1992 by the governments of both Japan and Canada, and they decided to award it posthumously. A further memorial will be the "May McLachlan Program" whereby students from the !Shizuoka Eiwa College will come to the Vancouver School of Theology to study Christian Studies and English for a year
