Emma was baptized by Joseph D. Babb about 1917 in a little river near Polk and became a church member at Polk. She later moved her membership to the Louisburg Christian Church after her marriage in 1918. She attended her church faithfully until her health failed. She read her Bible daily until her eyesight failed. In the last few years, she was often heard to remark that she didn't know why she was still living, and couldn't go to be with the Lord. She was a loving and precious mother to her children, always ready to listen and understand any problem that her family might have. She bore her afflictions and patience and accepted life as it was dealt to her.
She always loved and looked forward to the Old Settlers Reunion (also known as the Louisburg Picnic) and missed it this year for the first time in 93 years.
She was preceded in death by her husband, D. B.; her parents; one son, Alvin t. Arnold; one brother, Roy Moore and one sister, Lena Richards.
