I am thinking of the family and praying for you during this hard and unwelcome chapter of life. Especially you Linda, my dear friend. Remember she lives in you, carry her with you in all occassions that you know she would have enjoyed and loved. In that way she will be with you forever. I love you.

I was very sad to hear of the passing of Emma. i knew her when my daughter Karen dated her grandson Kris. She was a very sweet lady and what i do remeber were the times we spent with her at bingo in Ft. Worth. we had so much fun and i can still see her with her jogging suit and head band on. Making us all laugh at the table. She is now at peace with God and smiling down on all of us.....Patty Tiratto

It has been years since I've seen or spoke with Ms. Emma and the family. Do have great memories of knowing such a fun and lively woman. She once performed in a stage play with mom (Santa Morales).. to raise funds for my church queen campaign.. they had a blast...The Jesse Morales Family and Mary Jane/Adan Salgado Family send their respects.
