In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.
Hello dear family of Emma. I am a person who happened to read what happened on the website of your daughter and her grandmother at Microsoft. I have to say that I'm very sorry and I wish you all the best in your future life.

I don't know your family, but I came across an article about Emma getting married to her sweetheart prior to her passing. I cannot express all the emotions that come from reading about this remarkable girl. This really touched my heart. What a blessing she is! I'm sending you my deepest sympathies for your devastating loss. May God bless you and give you comfort in your time of profound grief. You're in my thoughts and prayers, Annemarie

Never meet this little girl but followed the whole story on this sweet girl on Facebook.. It was one of the most inspirational story to so many children fighting this battle. I want to thank the family for sharing her incredible story in her short time here on earth that has touched so many lives .. Many prayers to the family and friends even the ones like me that never meet her. Her memory will be with all of us till we see her again living with no more pain. Comfort, healing and prayers for all..

I know you lived a short life but from the love you gave n the beauty you life enhanced wherever you were was a true testament in that short life...you rest high and watch over your family including you husband "DJ"..goodnight beautiful Angel

Emma, Aaron & Alina- thank you for sharing your beautiful, loving & faith FILLED journey through this with us & for allowing us to ALL love your BabyGirl & to share in her radiant love of life, and amazing legacy. She has touched me (& SOOO Many others) because y´all weren´t afraid to share the truth to the not so happy parts of life (that suck) & not just the happy ones in treasured snapshots. Y´all allowed us to all witness a true life unicorn , mermaid & Angel & for THAT I know God will reward you greatly. Right now, I pray he wraps you tightly in his healing arms of comfort & peace that HE ALONE can provide in a time like this. And thank you for loving each other the way you 2 & your entire family LOVE one another. Emma is as special as she is ONLY because she was raised that way! Be kind to yourself, I´m praying for y´all!

I live in the Kansas City Area. Worked at Lee Jeans. A couple Fb friends have been posting her story. My heart breaks for all of you. We saw once on a headstone in an old, abandoned cemetery:
Weep not for me my parents dear,
For I´m not gone, but sleeping here.
I was not yours, but His alone,
He loved me best and took me home.
I will continue to pray for your healing and that God very soon removes your pain and replaces it with only happy memories.
