more notes from friends

Your mother was a delightful person who made an amazing contribution to the world and she will be missed by all who were fortunate to meet her.  May your heavy heart be softened by wonderful memories.
 
With love and sympathy - Linda Hicks
 

 
Through ASG, I received the beautiful email you shared with people.  You did a masterful job in writing it.  I have known your mom for years and bought lots of fabric from her and still have some of the garments!  She was the most talented person I have ever met and very generous in sharing her knowledge.  Having such a loving, caring family was truly a blessing for her.  You, too, were blessed in have her all these years.  I just wanted you to know that I am thinking of you and your family, and hope that the happy memories you have will help you through this difficult time.  I will remember you in my prayers.

I was so sorry to hear the sad news about your mother.  I know you will miss her terribly.
 
I first met Emma in the 70's when we first moved to Sacramento and I joined Fibers Guild which she had founded.  I was delighted to find new friends with interest in textile arts and your mom was always sharing new ideas and techniques.

Emma well be missed by us.  She was a remarkable woman here on Earth.  I'm sure she will continue her mission on the other side of the veil in a pleasing manner to Heavenly Father.  Shenna, please tell your father that we are sorry for his loss.  I know that they were a very close couple and the members in the ward when Brother Allebes was Bishop really respected and admired both of them.

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.
