My love and deepest condolences to Emily's family and friends. As a teacher, at best I often have at best a small passing memory of most of the thousands of students in my career. When I heard of your loss, I was overwhelmed by a flood of the many lessons, rehearsals and wonderful times together of which I remembered. I immediately thought of Emily's beautiful smile, and in fact, I never remember seeing her without that smile. She was a shining light in every class; talented, funny, and simply a wonderful young lady. I have, and always will remember her fondly. Love and prayers. . . .Mr. K
