I had the pleasure of working with Emmett at the beginning of his legal career and was always impressed with his warmth, his intelligence, and his quick wit. He was easy to talk to, good with a joke, and I always pictured him with that wry smile on his face. I have fond memories of the two of us passing time in my office talking about the Hawks or sharing funny anecdotes, of which he seemed to have a steady supply. On hearing of his passing, the world felt a little dimmer without his light....

Dear Shaughnessy family, Words cannot express the depth of the sorrow we feel for you over the tragic loss of Emmet. We didn´t know Emmet personally, (Neal is married to our niece Nancy) but we know he must have been very special. We can´t imagine the intensity of this loss, the depth of the pain that such an untimely parting from one so young must bring. Emmet was obviously handsome, intelligent and accomplished, a bright light, extinguished before it had a chance to fully shine. May you...

My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. I was one of his roommates at the University of Arizona. There wasn't a day that went by without Emmett bringing up one of his family members and how much they meant to him. He truly loved his family. He was incredibly funny and the best host/entertainer of guests I've ever been around. He could turn someones day around with a joke and he did so on countless occasions. I am deeply saddened by his passing but I take solace in the fact that his...
