Our deepest sympathy to all of Emma's Family! She was a great human being. Very caring and fun to be with. I know she was a great Mother, simply because of how all her children turned out. She had to have been proud. She will be missed and she leaves many wonderful memories. She left only good memories for me personally. All your memories of her will exist forever. May God be with you all.
