So sorry to hear of Barbara’s passing. She had a long life and was blessed with a wonderful family. Edie is the only one of you I really know and I send love and hugs to you. Wow, to make it to 102 and to be as sharp as she was.

Dear Emmenegger family;
So sorry for your loss. May Barbara rest in peace
Dear Emmenegger Family,
We first were introduced to Barbara when Mary babysat for our three children. I kept up with the family when I would run in to your Mom at various places in La Grange. She was always the same – so kind and gracious. It was always a delight to see her. Our sympathy to all of you.

Mary, I am sorry for your loss. Though I didn’t know your mom, I knew you, which gave me a glimpse into the person she was. Wishing you and your family comfort and peace.
Dear Emmenegger family,
I knew Mrs. Emmenegger as a very kind and gracious Lady. It was always a great pleasure to run into her in the grocery store years ago. She is leaving behind the legacy of a beautiful family. May she rest in peace. Please accept our heartfelt sympathy. Ed & Trudi Urchell
