Emily Rechlicz Obituary

Emily A. Rechlicz, 22, of Scranton, died tragically on Wednesday, February 6, 2013, at her apartment in Scranton.

She was born in Philadelphia, to Dr. David J. and Stacie (Millett) Rechlicz, Montrose.

She is also survived by her brother, Jack Rechlicz, Scranton; maternal grandparents, Daniel and Judith Millett, Clarks Summit; paternal grandmother, Eleanor Rechlicz, Clarks Summit; many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Her paternal grandfather, Eugene Rechlicz predeceased her.

Emily was a 2008 Montrose Area High School graduate. She was enrolled in the graduate level Physician's Assistant Program at Marywood University. Emily enjoyed snowboarding, tennis, horseback riding; she loved the beach.

Emily was a beautiful, loving, and caring daughter, granddaughter, and friend. She brought love, happiness and kindness to all of the lives she touched. Emily's passion and excitement for the Physician's Assistant Program at Marywood and all the people she worked with was a driving force in her life. We will miss her lovely smile. The life she shared with us was taken too soon.

A Mass of Christian Burial was held at 10:30 a.m. Monday, February 11, 2013, at Holy Name of Mary Church, Montrose, with Monsignor James McGarry and Rev. Gerard F. Safko co-officiating. Calling hours were held Sunday, from 3 to 5 p.m., at the Daniel K. Regan Funeral Home, Montrose.

Memorial contributions in Emily's name can be made to, to the Women's Resource Center, either: P.O. Box 975, Scranton, PA 18501, or P.O. Box 202, Montrose, PA 18801, or; The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, c/o Chop Foundation, Lockbox #1352, P.O. Box 8500, Philadelphia, PA 19178.

We cannot express our feelings and sorrow for all of you. There is no greater loss. We cannot imagine your sadness and sense of helplessness. Our hope is that someday, someday soon, your memory will fill with the good and happy times of Emily. It will be a long journey. One of my first and fondest memories of our babies was introducing the girls to you and Emily, with Judy looking on so full of love. You were pregnant with Jack. Flash forward 22 years. Heartfelt, heartfelt feelings to you and all of your family. Love, Mac and Reg
