Emily worked as a travel agent for many years, living in both Cleveland and Scottsdale, Arizona, before returning to Cleveland to be closer to her family. She loved spending time with her children, grandchildren, and great-granddaughters and was a loving, caring, and fun presence in their lives. She will be especially remembered for her kindness, warmth, and beautiful smile.
She is survived by her children, Michael (Beverly), Sherry (Rick), and David (Leigh); her siblings, Stuart (Jill), Marc (Lynne), and Nancy (Jeremy); her grandchildren, Eric (Jeremy), Amanda (Jake), Jared, Sarah, Rebecca, Ryan, and Michelle; and her great-granddaughters, Ellie and Olivia.
A special thank you to Taheim, Ebony, and Nikki for their compassionate care during Emily’s final days.
