May Funeral Homes have been serving the community for over 40 years. Being a family owned and operated organization, we value integrity in operation.

Mays ranks among the all-time leaders in home runs, hits, runs scored, and runs batted in (RBI). In 1954 he helped the New York (later San Francisco) Giants win the World Series.

Mays' four-home run game was just the beginning of the biggest power stretch of his career. From 1961-65, Mays crushed 226 home runs (an average of 45 per season), the most of any five-year stretch in his career.

Mays was one of the best dual-threat players in MLB history, using his incredible blend of speed and power to torment opposing pitchers. He is one of just 30 players all-time to hit at least 50 homers in a single season and he's one of 86 players to rack up at least 20 triples in a season.

Widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, Mays was a five-tool player who began his career in the Negro leagues, playing for the Birmingham Black Barons, and spent the rest of his career in the National League (NL), playing for the New York / San Francisco Giants and New York Mets.
