Emily Alma Wynne

Emily Kunst Wynne, born February 9, 1928, died July 18, 2024 after a long and happy life. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and friend. Emily was born and raised in Fox Chase, PA. She married the love of her life, Bob, whom she met at a church picnic. They eventually settled in Springfield, PA where they resided for 40 years. They were members of Springfield Presbyterian Church. She and Bob spent many happy years of retirement at Willow Valley Communities in Lancaster, PA. They were married for 63 years, and Emily missed him terribly after his passing in 2012.

She is also predeceased in death by her sister, Mildred Kunst; brother, Paul Kunst and his wife Beatrice; daughter-in-law, Phyllis Wynne; and son-in-law, Dick Visconti. She left behind two daughters, Krista Visconti and Beth Anne Wagman (Ed), a son David Wynne, and sister-in-law Edith Wynne Kosa (John). She had 6 granddaughters, 10 great grandchildren, and a devoted niece and nephew in Paulette Lance and Joe Kunst.

Voted “Most Friendly” in high school, she was an outgoing person who made friends wherever she went. She traveled the world in her younger years, and more recently relished a game of cards with her loyal friends. She was Judge Judy’s biggest fan and thoroughly enjoyed a dinner of spaghetti and meat sauce. We will miss her treasured hugs and shared love.

A private burial will be held for the family in Springfield, PA. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Meals on Wheels at www.mealsonwheelsamerica.org.
