So sorry to read this news about Mrs. Emison. She and Mr. Emison were dear family friends and shared many Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners with us. Mr. Emison always brought my mom an orchid he had grown in his greenhouse. Mr. Emison had been my dad's first boss at CGW in Charleroi, PA. Mrs. Emison and my mom shared their Polish heritage as well.
