SPRINGFIELD — Edgar May was remembered Sunday for his passion and compassion, whether it was exuberant yodeling on a ski lift at Magic Mountain, or his determination to help people who didn’t have a voice.
...
May’s former sister-in-law, Maggie Breason Lockridge of Rancho Mirage, Calif., recalled her sister Louise’s meeting with the exuberant yodeler at Magic Mountain in Londonderry back in 1961.
His joie de vivre struck the two sisters, who later that morning met the stranger at the ski tow. Her sister was working in New York City for Voice of America, and May was also living in New York at the time.
Lockridge said she viewed the yodeler as the perfect cure for her sister’s disappointment over a broken engagement, and she gave a friendly push, which collapsed the future couple on top of each other, spawning a romance and marriage three years later.
