This is sad news indeed. Emory was a lovely, wonderful man and touched innumerable lives with his positive, caring demeanor. We have lost a precious man. Thank you, Emory, for each uplifting moment you shared with me, esp your daily visits while I was at NHRMC in 2001. Dear Marilyn, family, and friends: I send my love, sympathy for your loss, and prayers for your comfort.
