Memories of my youth include Miss Em. She was always there; at our basketball games and football games among many other events. And, she was always smiling and always interested in all of us. Today she is smiling at the feet of our Lord and Savior and giving Him her total attention. She will be missed here on earth but oh how she is celebrating now.

Remembering with a heavy heart and, at the same time great joy, interacting with Em in many moments of life growing up in Joiner; at AG, her devotion to her children and friends. Her smile could light up a room and did so no matter where she was. My deepest sympathies to Jenny Earl, Howard Lynn, and Max and other loved ones she leaves behind. May God grant serenity in the coming days.
