I worked with Emi for the short period on Bainbridge Island. I still am in awe of her and can´t believe I met someone so famous, but such a kind and compassionate person. Thank you Emi for touching so many lives including mine. I am so sorry we lost touch.

Emi married my grandfather in the late Nineties, she was a very nice lady, I wish I had gotten to know her better, While we aren't blood, she did treat me like family. Her death still affects my Grandpa today, I do my best to honor her memory.
