Emily had a strong passion for people, she enjoyed helping others and would give the shirt off her back to someone in need if she had to. Emily had a huge heart and touched many lives personally and in her professional life.

Emily enjoyed spending time with her family and friends in her free time. She also enjoyed reading, antiquing, and spoiling her dog-son, Obbie. Emily accomplished many goals in her short time here on this earth, and had many more goals she wished to pursue. Emily was a light to many, fun to be around, and full of joy!
