  8. My heart broke when I heard the news of your passing. We became fast friends in nursing school and we shared so many great days together. Beneath all our laughter and silliness was an understanding and a deep friendship. You were a sunbeam of a human and someone who really cared about other people. From one witchy gal to another, I’ll look for you in cardinals, in white feathers and in dreams. I love you very much Emma. Rest in the sweetest of peace🩷

  9. Mike and Asa, I am so incredibly sorry. Emma was a beautiful person who ALWAYS had a smile and nice words to say to her friends and teachers. May her light shine on in her daughter.

  10. I wish to express my sincere and heartfelt sympathy to Emma`s family in their loss of her. A couple years ago I was in my driveway having issues with my snowblower and she came over and made a suggestion of what I could try and by golly it worked. I`ll treasure that special memory for the rest of my life. A neighbor caring enough to help a neighbor in need. May God grant you peace and comfort at this difficult time. God bless you. Love and prayers.

  14. Emma, our dear friend from Nursing school, a bright light to run into at MMC— we miss you sooo much! We love you and think of you often— then and now. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family🤍

  15. Its still hard to believe. Hard to not see her out my front window doing something in the yard or talking to someone in the neighborhood. If I was shoveling she would come over and snow blow. If my gate was open she would text me. When I was having a hard time few years back she would check on me. When my daughter broke her arm she flew over here so fast and rushed her to the ER! We may not have spoke every day but we knew we were there for each other and that was important to me. I cared about you. You were such a good person, a good neighbor and my friend. Miss you Emma❤️
