    Emma’s sister, Mary, was in my class at Harrisburg Schools. I remember seeing Emma at school and saw her as a nice, sweet lady. My sincerest condolences to family and friends.

    Bobby, you must have had a great 53 years together. I never met her, but she must have been a special, lovely lady. My condolences to you and the family.

    Bobby and Family:

    Emma was my second cousin (Her mother, Sarah, was my first cousin) I remember her more as a child since I was in Sedalia, Mo. My mother, Clara Henderson, was her great aunt. She was a beautiful child and I can see she was a beautiful woman. Just a blessing from God, for sure.
    May God heal your and your children’s broken hearts.
