I had the honor of meeting Emily as one of the Go Red for Women Survivor Gallery this year. I remember her twirling around at the photo shoot and how her laughter was so infectious. She was always a pleasure and brought such joy to anyone who met her.

I will keep your family in my prayers and that God will comfort your heart, uplift your spirit and carry you through this time of sadness to a place of peace.

My wife & I did not know Emily , but we regret the sorrow you feel. We’ve grieved the loss of sons who were a little older than her, and I’m sure it doesn’t feel like it now, but we can tell you that as time passes you will be able to remember more of the good times and dwell less on your loss. We found that each person grieves in a different way and at different times, so we encourage each of you to allow for those differences in your families.
We are of the Christian faith and we dealt with our pain based on our belief that God is still sovereign even when we don’t understand tragedy. May you find comfort as you walk through this “valley of the shadow of death” and may friends share their good memories Emily with you.

Teri- I'm so sorry to hear this news! I'd been following your posts and praying for her and your family. Transplants are near and dear to my heart, as my husband had a liver transplant a few years ago. Please know I am so sorry for your loss and will be praying for your family in the days and weeks ahead. Please reach out if I can do anything.

I had the extreme pleasure of knowing Emily at Faith Baptist Academy when I worked there back in May 2012-March 2013. I always enjoyed her sense of humor. Her laugh was contagious. I taught her the cup game, and she really enjoyed playing it with me and the other students. Her sweet smile made my day. It was always a joy going to work knowing she would be there. Heaven has gained a sweet angel. Love you Emily! My sister-in-Christ, I will see you again some day!

Emily was such a light and inspiration. She was a joy in my class at age 3. She kept me on my toes and helped to guide me towards adoption of my girls because I needed a “Emily” in our family. I truly feel blessed to have known her and her family. I can’t read the book “Pinkalicious” without thinking of her. I feel blessed to have known her in her short life. Prayers for her family and friends.
