I have exchanged Christmas cards with Emma for decades. I was checking online to confirm her Florida address when I came upon this. I am so sorry to see this obituary about Emma's passing away. She will be missed by me and I already feel a void. I worked with Emma at Western Electric, 25th Floor, 20 N. Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL (Civic Opera House) and we sat next to each other. Emma treated me like a daughter and I truly loved her. I knew Russ as well and attended their 25th anniversary party. I am uploading her favorite holiday recipe card that she gave me - cherry bars - to share. I will make them this holiday for my family to celebrate Emma's life. She taught me so much - baking, sewing and growing plants are just a few things.
