She loved and nurtured her little brother, Nathan, whom she always watched over and protected. As she grew older, Emma discovered her passion in art, computer graphics, gaming, and Anime. Anyone that saw her artwork was amazed at how talented she was. Emma loved going to the park since she was a young girl and found happiness, contentment, and peace on the swings. Perhaps Emma’s greatest quality was that she loved everyone and everything.
