I was out doing errands yesterday and saw many red convertibles cruising along. It took me back to our "ladies" cruise in a convertible on the Las Vegas strip. Aunt Emma was having the most fun of all!!! She loved life that's for sure:):)
Emma was a great neighbor and friend, We've lived next door to her for a number of years. She always asked about my Mom when I came over and thought of others. I remember the first time she met Marylou at my house, Marylou said she had heard a lot about her and it was all bad, they laughed and enjoyed Barry's blacken fish. We enjoyed the birthday parties or get together's and we felt at home around them. Emma insisted I come over to the Rv store on one of those events and take pictures, Marylou came with me and Emma was in charge of the popcorn and she burned it, we tried to tell her but all the time she was stuffing the bags. She also wanted to take Barry and I out to eat one day so we went to Luby's, and we went thru the line and the only thing she picked up was a Big piece of pie. We ended up getting a third plate as we were sharing liver and onions and we had enough for all and she still eat that Big piece of pie. Just got to love her as she was a sweet person. I know she will be missed but she's happy now. Love Irene and Barry.
I have always remembered the visit we were having at the Glass home when I was in high school I think. The kids started a massive picture puzzle on the dining table. Every meal we had to cover it so people could use the table. Aunt Emma kept telling us if it wasn't finished by the day of the holiday we were celebrating she was going to dump it in the box. We all kept working and working on it. It was all done except for 1 piece. What a bummer we were thinking when who should walk over and snap that piece in herself--none other than Aunt Emma. After a good laugh it all went in the box:):)
Emma, I know you were tired and wanted to go, but we all loved you so. Remember you were my sister in Christ. You and I could do all kinds of special things together. Big things, like Square Dance Parties, bus trips for the Square Dancers, beautiful tables full of food, but the most important was the quiet times we just sat together and talked. When you get to Heaven go ahead and get things organized. We have callers and at least 2 Squares of dancers ahead of you. It will not be long till Gus & I join you. We will always love and remember you. You are special to both of us! Love you much! Gus & Emma lou
Every memory I have a Emma holds dear to my heart!! Thank you for allowing me to be part of your life. I love you so very much and miss you so. As you would say to me " I love you much" <3
