Emily was born on April 3, 2004, in Thomaston. She was a lifelong resident of Pike County where she attended Pike County High School. Emily was an exceptionally skilled heavy equipment operator with McLeRoy Inc., a job she very much enjoyed.
Emily was smart and savvy. She was a born leader with an outgoing personality. She was never one to meet a stranger. Emily loved listening to music and spending time with her friends. She especially loved being with her family including her Maw Maw, Paw Paw, and beloved nephews. Emily was funny and loved being goofy with her friends. She liked to eat and made sure to enjoy a generous serving of milk and cheese every day. She had a vibrant spirit that lit up every room she entered. She had a heart for service and was known to help others at every opportunity. Even after her passing, Emily’s legacy of love continued as she graciously gave to others the gift of life through organ donation.
Emily was preceded in death by her grandfather, Gary Howell, and great-grandparents: Claudie Bell Clark, Cecil Leon Clark, Reno Gordy, and J.D. Gordy.
