Dear Lorne and Susan, Allan & Donna, Bert & Margaret, grandchildren and great-grandchildren:

My deepest sympathy to your family. We saw Emily last week at the cemetery service at Stanley's Corners and are shocked to hear that she is gone. She was a bright light for many years at St. Thomas Anglican Church, Stittsville, Ontario.

Thinking of you and your family with deepest sympathy and fond memories.

My condolence to all the family. The 2009 Smith Family Reunion and planning provided the chance to meet Emily and family. She was the eldest person in attendance at the event and was respected and loved by the attendees. Her memories will live on and provide each of you comfort.
