Emily grew up in Farmington, New Mexico and moved to Albuquerque in 1979. She went on to be a caregiver, in addition to being a dedicated wife, mother, sister, and nana. She enjoyed bingo, crochet, needle points, and going to the park with the grand kids. Her wish was for her family and friends to be in peace and love each other unconditionally as she loved us.
