Emily Kathryn was a playful and happy baby girl already kicking and dancing in the womb. She is the youngest of 10 siblings and has been preceded in death by 3 siblings; Gabriel, Daniel, and Rose who were there in Heaven to celebrate her coming.
Emily is survived by her parents, Chris and Katie, and 7 siblings, Daisy, David, Thomas, Matthew, Peter, Liam, and Annie, along with many loving Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins.
Her brothers would take every chance they could to talk to her, feel her many movements, and give her hugs. Her older sisters were anxiously preparing for her arrival by shopping and decorating for her homecoming.
Though this has been the most devastating time of our lives, the support, love, and prayers we have received from our family, friends, and community has been healing to our hearts. You all are our gift from God surrounding us spiritually with prayers and love.
