Per Gwen D (Member who created this memorial)-
Emmett was my sister's Uncle. We used to call him UE. My sister Joyce honored Uncle Emmett by giving her youngest son Charlie, Emmett as his middle name. I knew Uncle Emmett for a short time, but really liked him. He was kind, interesting and made good conversation. He had a lot of great stories about his travels and working as an expert witness in the Chemisty field.
Below is his obituary, I edited some names out.
