I was so proud to know John. He was a true example of the Gospel

Dear Emmett Family,
Pam and I are so sorry to hear about the passing of your father. As my High Priest leader I was taught by one who truly knew and loved the Gospel. Having had the opportunity to serve as your parent's bishop, your dad's love for the 18th Ward was evident in all he did. He was a great neighbor - a man who loved to be active and to serve others. He was a go-getter! I will never forget when the mistake was made on your parent's mission call and they were assigned to...

Dear Emmett family -- I am sorry to hear about Dr. Emmett's passing. I have wonderful memories with Mary and your family: riding up to Beaver in the motor home, skiing at Targhee, playing in the backyard treehouse, and riding in the cool old-fashioned car. I fondly remember when Dr. Emmett took Mary and I in the motor home to General Conference. After the priesthood session we went out for ice cream and met one of the General Authorities.

Dear Chad and family,

I was sorry to learn of your father's passing. I never had the privilege of meeting him, but I have heard so much about him from others. It sounds like he passed on a lot of his character (and his humor) to his children. That is his best legacy.

Dear Emmett family,
I always had the greatest respect and admiration for your dad, and your mom, growing up in the Logan 10th Ward. He always had such a ready smile and a warmth that made you feel important. May the peace of the comforter be with all your family now and always. Jan Craw Cain and the Wayne Craw family

Dear Emmett family,
Our hearts are with you. Scott had his life enriched by his associations with your dad and the whole family in his teenage years and beyond. We love you all.
Scott and Vickie Craw & family

When Nan and I were newlyweds, President Emmett was in our stake presidency in Logan. We enjoyed him and his family and were best aquainted with Bill & Lorie, and later Chad. Our prayers are with the entire Emmett family at this time.

I came to know John and Norda from the stories Bob shared during our many years working at LSI. From all reports John knew how to be a positve force, was a great Dad and lived and enjoyed his full life. Our loved ones show us the way to live life and cherish famil and they remain with us at all times.

Our thoughts go out to you at this time of loss.

We appreciated getting to know John and Norda. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Lacey RN at Logan Cancer Center
