FW: Your Mother

Dear Shenna: 
 
Doris Pichly forwarded your e-mail to me.  For the moment I am just stunned, and thinking   about how to show Emma how dear and appreciated she is to all of us. (Penwomen)
 
She is a treasure.  My love to all of you .   I lost my husband of 51 wonderful years in 1998.  Is there nothing that can be done?  It is just terrible news.
 
Please know the loss will be incomparable to your Father.  I am truly thankful that he has a loving family.  The gift of your time for years to come will secure him. 
 
 More later.   Love to you, you did a fine job with one of your life's most difficult tasks in notifying Emma's friends.     
 
 Vaya con Dios

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.
