We met Emily a year ago at the Dallas airport while awaiting our connecting flight to Omaha. Instantly she was my new best friend. Emily wanted to make sure our visit to Omaha and Creighton was a successful one, as Marissa was looking at Creighton as an incoming freshman for fall 2011 and a very nervous one. Emily had a big hand in her decision to commit to Creighton. Meeting with Emily and Mary Kate a few times over dinner, Emily made us feel good about the school and Omaha. She was so welcoming. I was looking forward to some Basketball games with Emily, as she had a great love for Creighton. Although it was brief, I will always be thankful that I met Emily my new best friend. What a wonderful lady! Ours thoughts and prayers are with you.

Rick, MaryKate,and Family,
We are so sorry to hear of Emily's passing. She was such a great lady and we enjoyed her company in Puerto Vallarta having dinner and all the great sandwiches she would make for our boating trips. We will miss her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Emily Scott was an absolutely amazing woman. Fun, smart, and most importantly, loving. I can't even remember the number of time she opened her home up to me and others. I will miss her and will always remember the wonderful memories I have of her.

Rick & Family,

Emily and I have remained friends for 38 years and I was so blessed to have worked with her at McGrath North. It was extra special to see her with you at the AHS class reunions when you were back for them. I was saddened to receive the call from Bob telling me that she was in the hospital. The service planned by her was such a tribute to her and she will remain in my heart forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Sorry I could not attend the services for Emmy. I cherish her memory as if a member of blood family, given the relationship between the Scherrs and Kellers. What a vibrant woman, so many memories of her, from boyhood when she was sister Jane's year at HC/Mercy, thus Bernie's immediate elder, to working together as waiters in the first months of La Strada (while she was finishing law school), to "sneaking off to a movie with Julie" as adults, to the compliments she received from Omaha judges I know who considered her among the upper echelon of lawyers in their court (always prepared, direct, and succinct) and the penny loafers she wore.
Her memory lives on in those of all the people who knew her.
With love,
Rich Keller

When I think of Emily it brings several names to mind....Emi (cuz that's what she went by then), Janell, Barb C, Barb R.,Paula, Cres......let's face it, she had a lot of friends at Mercy! We did get in a smidge of trouble now and then, but always had a great time.
So glad we were able to get together last time I was in Omaha. The world lost a lovely lady.

In grade school, Emily and I were best friends. Then she went to Mercy and I went to Ryan and we lost touch with each other. We ran into each other again in the ICU at Bergen Mercy many years ago and then again a few other times more recently in the neighborhood. I am so saddened to hear of her death. We kept telling each other that we needed to get together to catch up, but as things too often go, we never got the chance. Your family is my prayers. I will never forget her and how much fun she was.

I will forever hold a special place in my heart for my Aunt Emily. She was always there for us when we needed her. A truly wonderful, funny and caring person. I'm so sorry for the loss for my Uncle Rick and my cousins Mary-Kate, Dale, Clint and Justin.

I would only echo Greg Garland's thoughts. Emily was a wonderful classmate at Creighton Law, and truly made our class stronger.

Dear Steve, Jan, Mike, Tina, Bernie (and Helen and Mary and Emily's family),
It was less than two months ago that Kathleen and I sat around the dinner table in Omaha with Steve and Jan and Mike and Tina,being regaled with grand remembrances and tales of the Scherr clan, with the filip of a visit with Bernie the following evening. We heard just a short while ago from Cliff and Lucy of Emily's dying. Be assured of our thoughts, prayers and condolences.

Dear Rick and Mary Kate,
We were so saddened to hear of Emily's passing and want to let you know our prayers are with you. We have great memories of you guys back and forth from Granby to Denver to Omaha - and of Dawn and Emily gossiping about our wild and crazy and beautiful little "campers." Know that her spirit will never leave you all the days of your lives. God bless you two.

To the Scherr and Scott Families: I am saddened to hear of Emily's passing, and you all are in my thoughts. I'll always remember Emily for her individuality and caring for others. You can bet that she, Julie and Art and Edith and Frank will soon be planning a BIG party with lots of fun and laughter.
