Does Steven and Darwin Hodges my heart goes out to you guys and to the family Miss Emma will really be missed I'm going to miss the talks on the phone late nights we used to have and laugh but anyway my heart goes out to the family you guys God bless you try to be strong for each other and most of all continue to love each other thank you Angela

Wishing you peace, comfort, courage, and lots of love at this time of sorrow. We were so lucky to have Emma as part of our family. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Love, The Ridley's and extended family.

MY HEART WAS VERY SAD WHEN I HEARD OF HER PASSING. SHE WAS A VERY SWEET LADY AND WILL BE MISSED BY MANY.

I REMEMBER WORKING WITH MS. EMMA, VERY SWEET AND HUMBLE LADY. MAY GOD BRING COMFORT AND PEACE TO THE FAMILY.

To My Beloved Sister Emma, After mom and dad die, you became the head of our family. I will miss so much our times of fellowship over the phone. Times we prayed and cried together over our children, grandchildren, and our family. We had wonderful, blessed times of praise and worship. I will miss getting your famous homemade coconut cake you made for me on my birthday and your homemade mac and cheese. Hmmm that was the best ever. The joy i have now is knowing that as a believer in Jesus Christ. I will see you again in heaven my sister. Rest now in the present of our Lord until we meet again. With that great crowd of witnesses that are already in heaven. You will always be in my heart and never forgotten. I love you now, today, and forever my sister, Emma.

Your Brother, Linwood
