We can't always put into words how we feel, but i think my daughter might have said what I would like to say "Heaven now has a Spunky Angel".
Rest in Peace Emma.

On behalf of the Ross Langman family, we wish to extend our deepest sympathy to the Rhodes family. Emma was a very special and kind friend to my father the late Ross A Langman JR. She kept his barstool empty in his honor after his passing, their friendship ran deep. Now…together again.
May God Bless You All; Ross & Laurie Langman

Emma –

To the world you were a tough old bird. You could out-talk and shock the best.

To those of us who are fortunate to be your nieces and nephews, we know a caring person who continued to love her nine siblings and their children – even after moving to “the lights of the big city.”

To me, personally, you are the caring little sister who carried water upstairs in the Stone House to my mother, Pauline, when she was very ill with Tuberculosis. Grandma Kinsey was busy as the Augusta Postmaster and preparing for the birth and delivery of her tenth child, Eb. Mom could always count on Emma.

Godspeed, Emma. We welcome your body Home to the Augusta Cemetery!
