Emma was my friend and I will miss our talks. I fixed her hair and we laughed and even sheared tears. Many did not really take the time to understand her. I did. She had a really good heart and liked people. Her family was blessed to have her and I feel blessed to have known her. Thank you for sharing her with me. "Emma you with the one we talked about and I will see you someday" God bless you always.
