Deepest Sympathy

Dear Ted, Shenna and family,
It is with sadness and tears that I send you my deepest sympathy. Emma and I have had wonderful memories in the Folsom Quilt Guild together--since about 1990. I know she is in a better place and I pray she didn't suffer. She will be deeply missed. She always asked "how is your son in Iraq?" She left a legacy of wonderful quilts and wearable art. She had a great sense of humor and I loved to laugh with her.
Hugs,
Kris
Here is a quilt I made with fabric from one of my mother's dresses in honor of my Mother.

What is Your Emma Story?

This blog is a chance to remember and honor Emma by bringing us together in a way that can only be done through a medium like the internet. We love her, we will miss her, but she's here for a short time still, and we want to smile and cry and laugh together with her as much as possible while we can.

Emma has touched a monumental number of lives through her work as a mother, grandmother, friend, teacher, artist, and to Ted as a dear wife. There are countless stories that have already been told many times, and there are many others that we're going to learn for the first time as we read them here.

PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS, STORIES AND PICTURES!!!

Not only will we be able to laugh and smile together, even after Emma has passed, but we will be sharing this blog with Emma. If you have a story, long or short, silly or sad, pensive or outrageous, please take some time and share it with us and Emma.

This is such a dear time for all of us. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and prayers.

It's easy! To post to Emma's blog, send an email to emmaallebes.post@blogger.com. If you have a picture(s) that you would like to add, make it an attachment to the email. Your email will post automatically.

Please remember to include your name somewhere in the email/post.
