My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Gene. I didn't know Emma
very well, but she was always so kind and friendly to my mom and I whenever we
saw her. The funeral service was beautiful and the Pastor spoke very highly of
Emma talking about how much she was loved and will be missed. God Bless!

I had the pleasure of knowing Emma by working with her at Meijer, we always had a laugh or two and stories to share. I was shocked upon hearing of her passing, and I am so sorry for your loss.

Emma was my mother's hairdresser for many years and also styled mine from time to time. My Mom loved Emma's way of being in the world and would affirm her assets to me often. I, too, experienced Emma as a kind, gentle and compassionate person - a light in our world.

How difficult it must be for you to grieve the loss of such a gift of God's love to life. May you experience comfort as you remember together the many ways this dear soul touched your hearts and your lives. May your faith in God give you peace.
