Kathy, Sheila and family: I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with your mom over 15 years and grew to love, care and respect her. She was a hard worker and took care of things that I didn't even know about. She was kinda quiet but had a great sense of humor too. You and your family are in my prayers for peace and comfort. Emma will be greatly missed.
