Aunt Emma was a very special aunt...she was a big supporter of mine as I was growing up. I appreciated that she would come from Massachusetts to visit our family in Florida...she last visited for my graduation from high school in 1989. She was always so warm, positive, and giving. I will miss her greatly.
