From the moment we met Emmet and Carolyn when we moved to Freeman many years ago, I knew we had met very special people. Whether it was a visit to the Post Office cause Emmet had called making cheeping sounds cause our baby chickens had arrived or meeting Carolyn somewhere and always getting a warm hug and a big smile, your day was always better for having seen them. Comming over there fishing was always a highlight to my 3 daughters and I.
I am very sorry for your loss.
