I was good friends with Emily in elementary school in Los Altos - we lost touched when I moved away, but I have thought of her often over the years. I am so saddened to hear of her passing. She was always such a spitfire and we had some great times together. Sending love and light.

I met Emily thru John and Steve in 1995. She always had a quick wit and calmness about her. She liked wine and song. I remember a caving trip near Sonora where a bunch of us rappelled down 150ft into the cave -and that was just the start of a very mucky 3 hrs! Then there were the bunko/xmas parties with Emily, Allison, Stef, Suzanne, John and Steve. Good times! The last time I saw her was at John&Carleen's wedding in 2009. I will miss her but have a slew of great memories of her.

Emmie was a sweet, kind friend and although, we hadn't seen each other in a while,I will still miss her and love her dearly. God bless you Emmie.. hugs.. Stefanie

Emily and I were besties in second grade when she lived on orange tree lane and I lived on Apple tree lane. I still have the teddy bear that I named after her. "Pegily". So sorry to hear of her passing. Rest in peace, friend!

Dear Emily, I am so saddened to hear you are no longer with us to share your gift of song. You were a fun jazz jam partner, and a great supportive friend. I will miss your versions of "Eleanor Rigby" and "Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars". I send my deepest condolences to your family. Love, Diana Torres-Koss
