I met Emily in the late 70's when we were both working at Conrac in Covina, CA.
Conrac was unique in that many of us stayed friends for years after working there and enjoyed doing things together outside of work.
We lost touch after we both went other places to work. Imagine my surprise to find her at Walmart in Mountain Home, Arkansas. We both knew each other right away. She had moved to Mt Home and we had a house in Gassville but hadn't made the move yet from CA.
We would get together every time we were in town for lunch and a long visit at her house. We went down to see her last year in Pine Bluff and had the best visit. Still the same big smile and hug. We talked and laughed about the old days. She showed my husband and I around her senior apt and it was decorated so nice and cozy. She always made me laugh with her stories or just the way she would tell you things.
I was so sorry to hear of her passing and send my deepest sympathy to her family.

You guys were such a big part of my early life….. understatement…… time passes in the blink of an eye, doesn't it. I remember your beloved mother as being a kind, generous, and loving aunt. Just know I love and deeply appreciate our shared time together. Stay strong and God Bless.

My dear dear aunt Emmy…where do I start So very early in my life she started watching me while my mom (her little sisters daughter) worked. Her and my all time favorite uncle, uncle Gail. All of my childhood happy memories were those wonderful days with them and my cousins Krista and Sharon. Den was always doing his guy things lol. Us girls might be building Lincoln logs in their bedroom or easy bake ovening it. Perhaps we might have been roller skating in their basement or jumping on the trampoline in the shed area of the garage! Might have been walking down the street to the local stores! But when we were through with all of our adventures…there she was in her pretty apron cooking up a storm for us all. Time went on and they were ALWAYS in my heart! Later they moved to California. I was able to visit them often as time went on. This woman has ALWAYS had not only my moms back but Mine. as well. God Bless you my sweet aunt Emmy. Little Judi 🫶🏼😘

Aunt Emily was a sweet person. She always had a smile on her face.
She had told me how her and my mom was best friends in school. And how mom fixed her up with uncle Gail. Love you.
