Loss of Emma

It is with much sadness that I received the notice of Emma's passing. She was a wonderful, talented lady who will be greatly missed. We served together on the Board of NCQC for many years and appreciated her many ideas and suggestions. The year (?) we did the July meeting as a Patriotic Show and Tell is one of those special memories.
 
My heart goes out to the family, especially to her husband, and to her many quilting friends in guilds all over California. The "Taxi Lady" will be remembered!!
 
Lovingly,
Diane Leighton

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.
