I had the pleasure of meeting this beautiful little girl last year at my sisters babylove event, she was one of the sweetest kids there and gave me the biggest hug and kiss when were were introduced. She will never be forgotten. We will be donating my 3 year olds hair to klip it for Kids this weekend in Emily's honor... xoxo

It was always such a joy to see Emily's smiling face come through the door. Her soft and gentle spirit always lifted us every time she came to play. No words do I have that can ever express my deep sorrow for your family or to those she came in contact with and touched so deeply; myself included. Emily, thank you so much for your gentle ways, your soft sweet voice, your beautiful smile, and your contagious laughter. Today, you have no more hurt, no more sorrow. You can spread your little wings and fly!! Thank you for coming to play with me... thank you for always making me laugh... thank you for always reminding me what is truly important... thank you for being you! Though you were in our arms for just a short while, you will be in our hearts forever!

I do not even know you, Emily, but you have the same name as my wonderful niece. You were an amazing tribute to your family and also to the joy of our world, I am sure. May the Lord bless your spirit and may your loving memory confort those of your family in these difficult times. Many Blessings, Lynn Manieri
