Emma Lee Lewis Obituary
7/12/1933 - 4/18/2022
Emma Lee was born in Paul's Valley, Oklahoma and passed away peacefully surrounded by her family and friends in Sacramento, CA. She was preceded in death by her husband Dayton (Tex) Lewis and her son's Danny and Ricky Lewis. She is survived by her daughter Kathy Young (Roger), her grandchildren Jennifer Lewis, James Lewis (Sandy), Julie Young, Brian Young (Melissa), great grandchildren Austin, Dean, Taylor, Faydra, Desiree, Dayton, Austin, Lily and Tex, great-great grandchildren Kane, Destiny and Journey, her brothers Randy and Donald Daniels and her sisters Sharon Everette and Carolyn Weitnauer along with several nieces and nephews that she loved deeply! She had a very special place in her heart for her grandchildren, spending time with them brought her so much joy!
She was known by many for the smiles and exceptional customer service she brought while she worked at See's Candy for her 29 years. She enjoyed embroidery, Bingo, playing games, marbles, and cards with family and friends.
She was loved by many and will be missed by all! Our family would like to thank Kaiser staff along with all the family and friends for all the love and support!
A celebration of life will be held Saturday April 30th 2022.

Tomorrow is your birthday mom, you would be 90 years old. Your presence is missed deeply and we would much rather you were here with us, but we are all going to be together tomorrow night and celebrate you! I want our family to know how important it is to support each other and continue to get together. I Love the way Lily and Tex continue to talk about you mom, you are still very much alive in their hearts. And just the other day, Marcus said he was going to pull an Emma Lee and win at Thirty One. Tex just graduated from Kindergarten and Roger and I finally took that Alaskan Cruise. I miss you mom.......Happy Heavenly Birthday! Until we meet again!

One year ago today, Mom......we lost your presence here on earth, but the Lord gained a faithful servant. I Love you so very much! I am trying today, to celebrate you! The wonderful, kind and loving person you were. You and Dad definitely left a legacy, and I'm trying now to be the example to our family that you were! I want Lily, Tex & Kane to know the love and respect of this family! What you and dad created. Although my heart is heavy today, I am trying not to have saddness. I want to celebrate you.......You are missed so very much Mom!

It's almost been an entire year mom.....I miss you as much today as I missed you when you passed. We were all so very blessed to have you in our lives! I miss your smirky little smile when you would win at a card game or marbles, but I really miss our mornings together! You were never a burden mom.....always a blessing! Your grandkids still speak of you often, I love that! You had so much love for them and they knew how very much you loved them. We Love you mom! We miss your presence but your memory is very much alive! Until we meet again!

Mom, not a day goes by that you are not in my thoughts. We were so very blessed to have you in our lives and I'm grateful for the time we had together. I don't think I realized the impact of you not being with us on a daily basis, I feel lost at times! You were an amazing woman and a wonderful mother, grandmother, sister and friend! You were always so patient and kind! I know it wasn't easy for you mom since February, but God continued to give you strength and you were a blessing to us to the very end! Until we meet again Mom......I Love you!
