Emma worked her whole life for social justice for all people. She stuffed envelopes, walked precincts, made phone calls, marched, raised money and made sandwiches for so many important causes and worthy candidates. She took so much interest in the lives of her friends and co-workers and more often than not volunteered her support or assistance to those in need without ever being asked to do so. Emma touched so many lives in so many ways. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, friend and co-worker. She was also a committed volunteer, community organizer, public servant and mentor. It should be everyone’s goal in life to leave their community a little better than they found it. Whether it was working for civil rights, helping to lift people out of poverty, making college education achievable for more young people, caring for her family, or lending a sympathetic ear to someone in pain, Emma did leave our community and state a better place.
A scholarship fund at Austin Community College has been set up in Emma’s name so that her work of assisting young people in getting an education will continue.
