Dear Shenna

Now that things have settled down just a bit in my life I have had some time to think about you and your sisters.  I appreciate so much what you did for your mom during her last couple of weeks on this earth.  Your dad, Heather and Reaka were there for her when I couldn't be, taking care of her every need.  I am so proud of you all.  I just wanted to express my appreciation.  Emma was an amazing person, friend, family member and artist.  She accomplished so much in her lifetime.  I will proudly wear her shoes and perhaps as a result it will make me a better quilter?  To be able to finsh her last quilt will be an honor and pleasure for me.
 
....Our family hope all is well with you and yours.
 
Love, your Aunt Millie, (Mildred in my other life)

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.
