She leaves to mourn with fond and loving memories her granddaughter: Denise (Marshall) Horne; grandson: Jeffrey (Catherine) Boland; great-grandchildren: Arya, Audrey, and Charles Boland; brother: Almore (Marie) Warford; sister-in-laws: Angela and Margaret Batstone; as well as a large circle of relatives and friends.

Emily was born in Brown’s Cove, NL on Sept 19th, 1929. She and her husband Fred built a home and life in Corner Brook, NL where they raised their only child Gertie, and were actively involved in the lives of their grandchildren Jeff and Denise. A cherished memory that Emily’s grandchildren shared with her is the time they spent camping together at Birchy Lake while growing up. Emily’s presence in the life of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren is treasured. Emily was a pillar of strength and devotion to her friends and family throughout her life.
Emily found deep comfort in the prospect of being reunited with her departed loved ones upon her passing. Her family expects a large welcoming party will be ready and waiting to usher her into the afterlife.
It was Emily’s wish not to have a funeral service. Her family is honouring her wishes and will celebrate her life together in private.
Thank you to Joy and the staff at Westmount Estates for all their care for Emilly over these past few years. Thank you to the doctors and nurses at Western Memorial Regional Hospital and thank you to Fillatre Funeral Home.
Denise and Jeffrey would like to recognize the unwavering love and support that Emily’s sister-in-law Angela provided to Emily in the last years of her life.

To Denise, Jeffery and families we are so sorry to hear of Aunt Em’s passing. Our sincere condolences to you and yours. One of my favourite memories of Aunt Em is when I was a teenager and she was visiting in Hampden. I was getting ready to go to the teenage dance just up the road from our house. Aunt Em, Aunt Lillian and mom wanted to come with me so I took them to the dance and all 4 of us danced together for several dances before they left and went back to the house. I remember how much they laughed and carried on that night. When I was home in December I went to visit her and she talked of you both. You were her pride and joy. I promised her I would come see her again next time I was home in Newfoundland. I have booked a trip for sept 14 to the 21st and would have been home on her birthday. I’m going to miss her. Rest easy Aunt Em you are with Uncle Fred and one of my favourite cousins, Gertie. Hugs to all love ❤️ always Henry and Metilda. Go rest peacefully high on the mountain Aunt Em. ????????????
