Em was born on April 25, 1933. Em truly cherished her family, friends, and independence.

She will be dearly missed by all that knew her. The family wishes to extend their special thanks to the staff at Munson Home Hospice and Bay Ridge Assisted Living Center, for their compassion and kindness. Em is survived by her daughters Michele Posey, Linda (Ron) Seitz, and son Marc (Karyn).

She is preceded in death by her husband Frank and son Frank Jr. Per Em’s wishes, cremation has taken place and no services will be held. In lieu of flowers or donations, Em would have wanted you to keep her, and her family, in your hearts and enjoy a Taco Bell taco in her honor! The family is being cared for by the Reynolds-Jonkhoff Funeral Home and Cremation Services. You can view Em’s tribute page at www.reynolds-jonkhoff.com
