Emile Maria Fairchild-Perry

Emile lived a life full of purpose, creativity, and compassion. She built a successful career in fashion, cosmetology, and sales, where her natural talent for connecting with people and her eye for beauty shone brightly. Later in life, Emile chose to focus her time and energy on creating a loving and nurturing home for her devoted husband James, and their five children.

Emile will be forever remembered for her vibrant spirit, generous heart, and unwavering love for her family and friends. She brought joy, laughter, and light to everyone she encountered, always offering encouragement, wisdom, or a helping hand. Her greatest pride was her family, and her love for them was felt in every aspect of her life.

The family asks that Emile be remembered not with sorrow, but with gratitude for the love, joy, and kindness she shared so freely. Her legacy will continue through the countless lives she touched and the memories that will live on in our hearts.

Emile is survived by her loving husband of 26 years, her children — Shannon, Porsche, Jalen, Ieshia, and Jarrod — and her 15 cherished grandchildren, who were the light of her life.

A Celebration of Life service will follow immediately from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm, as we gather to honor Emile’s beautiful life and the lasting love she shared with us all.
