Mae was born on April 21, 1903 in a sod house near Loretta, NE, on her parents, Charles and Isadora Kerns, homestead. Her parents were Oregon Trail Pioneers. She was previously married to Harpe Evans and later Oral Case. Mae married Chet Tibbits at Duncan, Okla. on January 3, 1943. She was a professional seamstress and operated her own alteration business near Fort Sill army base where Chet served in the military. After WWII, they moved to Pine Bluffs, Wyo. where they owned and operated Chet's Sinclair Service and Micky's Burger Bar, a well known and popular cafe at that time. In 1950 they moved to a rural acreage near Bushnell, Neb. on the Lodgepole Creek. Following Chet's death in 1989 Mae continued to live on her acreage until age 97, marking almost 50 years at that location. Mae was an avid gardener and raised flowers of all kinds, sometimes staying outdoors from dawn till dusk.
