Not sure what to say?

To Emily's family: She was a kind and warm person. Remember the first time I saw her, how friendly she was. She was always energetic. We will never forget her. I will miss her.

Dear Eric and Family,
Emily was an inspiration and a challenge to all who knew her - to learn, to grow, and to strive always to be a better human being! For her, flowers represented earth's ambassadors of beauty and peace. But, for those of us who loved her, she was a rare flower herself. I will miss her - "My Young As Springtime Emily" - My Dearest Friend.

Eric---I am so sorry to hear of your Mom passing away. What a remarkable lady she was! For almost the past 34 years I shared Xmas cards & letters with her,& I always looked forward to them. My heartfelt condolences to you & Nancy & the girls.

To Mrs. Seidel's family:

She was a client of Commonwealth Catholic Charities for such a short time. But the aides that worked with her loved her. She was a truly talented woman. We at Commonwealth Catholic Charities have the family in our hearts and prayers.

Dear Recycle: May God surround you and your family with his Love and tender mercies as you go through this sorrowful time....good thoughts go to all of you. So sorry to hear the news..... Miss Posie

Emily was my mentor and my friend. I would have dropped out of VCU due to a teacher who picked on me as an older student. She would say "pick his brain, Irene. Don't quit. She was so kind, brilliant, and compassionate. Irene Jessee Perry

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Recycle, I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Please look to God and your friends for the spiritual healing they can give. Love to you and your family, Sissy, Mike, Goose and Pipsqueak Womack

Rick, Nancy, Robin, Shannon and the little ones:
Relieved though I am for our Emily to be at peace and free at last from suffering, I can't help knowing how greatly I'll miss her. Giving has been the distinguishing mark of her long and fruitful life. So abundantly did she give of her time, her energies, her numerous talents, her hospitality, her worldly goods, her stimulating thoughts, and above all her affection, that it would be truly amazing if any of us were ever again to see her...
