So sorry to hear of Emily's passing. She was a free spirit with an incredible mind. We met on Myspace around 2004 and went on a few dates before deciding to just be friends. We had a lot of great times together in our 20's and early 30's. Although we had lost touch, I have always held her high in my memory and I always thought that we'd catch up again one day. Rest in peace Emily, you'll forever live in my heart.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful smile with us.  It was a lovely adventure to be by your side. I love you. Thank you Em. May the lord have you in his glory. Amen

Meeting Emily for the first time many years ago when she lived in Connecticut, I knew that she was a very special person.  She had a fabulous smile, loved her dog, Cali, knew how to work that Hoolahoop and had an infectious laugh.  She fought like no one I have ever known with her health.  Emily was no quitter and there were times that you could see the challenge that she was facing.  It is extremely heartbreaking to know that she has passed, yet I know that she is finely at peace.  There was a picture in the video that showed Emily with a rainbow in the background......somewhere, over that rainbow is Emily.  Forever missed, but not forgotten.

Thank you to the Shin family for sharing Emily's Service it was a beautiful tribute for a wonderful lady...May she rest in peace!

I do not know if this is Emily from UCLA Class of 2004, Psychology, but the DOB appears to match.  I'm sorry to read about your passing.  The last thing I heard from you was about your daughter and you were in Germany.   My condolence to your family, Brian, Christine, your daughter who was a mini you.  May you find the peace you did not have on Earth.   

A very special lady...greatest smile ever!
