I keep trying to find comfort that Joy welcomed her with open arms, but it is still hard to let go. Maybe someday your pain will ease in the fact that are not alone. God Bless each of you.

Little one, Emma Joy- We loved you so. Though you were here just a short a while.. Such joy when you came into many lives, such sorrow when you left. and the Father understands the anger and our tears. This little life has made an impact on the world which will never be forgotten. Her life is part of the mystery of being, having a far-reaching effect, although here such a short time with us. Emma has really touched my life….She may be gone in body but here spirit lives on….. ~Rest in Peace Sweet Emma and Dance Baby Dance~

Amy and Steve and boys, we are so sorry for the loss of Emma,we have been praying so hard for her.God must have needed her more.Thats hard to understand and you may never understand it fully.You both need to hold on to the boys and each other and God.thats the only way to make it through. It wont be easy and some days you will hate everybody and everthing. But that ok too, its just your way of trying to deal with it all.There is nothing worse than lossing a child.Nobody can say the right thing, dont know if there is anything you can say in person that really matters at the time.But we just wanted to let you all know we are thinking about you all, and if you need anything just call. or if you just need somebody to talk to that fine too.GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND BE WITH YOU IN THIS DIFFUCULT TIME IN YOUR LIFE.

B"H This beautiful, precious child touched so many lives, hearts and minds. Hearts of those praying for her that she never knew or met; people like me. She crossed all boundaries of faith with her courage and hope. Emma inspired me in countless ways. Her brave little spirit taught me to think before I complain, to be grateful for what I have, to cherish every single moment: even the challenges, loneliness and/or sorrow. Emma Joy epitomized the word "GIFT." I will personally never forget this angel baby for as long as I live, and I was honored to pray for her. Thank you Amy & Steve for sharing your treasure . . .

Steve and Amy, My heart is breaking for the loss of this precious angel. I hope that you and your family will find some comfort in knowing how your Emma united a community and made many who would not otherwise have given a second thought to appreciating the time they have with their own little ones. Emma was a shining beam of love and hope here on this earth. She showed more courage and love than most people will ever see in a lifetime. She surely is an Angel now and holding the hand of her Heavenly Father and charming the other Angels in Heaven just as she charmed life she touched here on earth. May God give your hearts comfort in knowing that her pain is over and she is now smiling down on you and will forever be the beautiful baby that everyone loved so much. One day there will be a joyous reunion and your Emma will be waitng with that big sunny smile of hers. God Bless each of you and Rest in Peace sweet Angel.....you will be missed, but you will never be forgotten and your legacy will live on forever.

It was my pleasure to meet Emma and her family as one of her Make-A-Wish Volunteer. She was such a joy each time we were at her house. She was looking so forward to seeing the princess at Disney. She danced around like not a care in the world. God has a very special Angel with him looking over her family. She is dancing with not a one pain. Steve, Amy & boys you all are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless your family. Clara Johnson

To all of the Ford Family, I came to know about Emma through her Facebook page. And while I did not know her for a long time the time that I did share in her life has left an impact on all of us. In the coming days I hope you will remember her as dancing to her favorite Bieber song in her little tutu, that is how I will remember her, now she can show off her moves to Mamaw. But not only that, she was a strong fighter. Praying one day there is a cure for this monster we call cancer and that it did not come in time for Emma, please feel happy that she helped pave the way for others, the lives she has touched. Sending love from my family to yours.

I am praying for your family that in the coming days you remember how she danced in her little tutu and that now she is dancing with Mamaw showing off her stuff to all.

It wont be easy and some days you will hate everybody and everthing. But that ok too, its just your way of trying to deal with it all.There is nothing worse than lossing a child.Nobody can say the right thing, dont know if there is anything you can say in person that really matters at the time.But we just wanted to let you all know we are thinking about you all, and if you need anything just call. or if you just need somebody to talk to that fine too.GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND BE WITH YOU IN THIS DIFFUCULT TIME IN YOUR LIFE.

B"H This beautiful, precious child touched so many lives, hearts and minds. Hearts of those praying for her that she never knew or met; people like me. She crossed all boundaries of faith with her courage and hope. Emma inspired me in countless ways. Her brave little spirit taught me to think before I complain, to be grateful for what I have, to cherish every single moment: even the challenges, loneliness and/or sorrow. Emma Joy epitomized the word "GIFT." I will personally never forget this angel baby for as long as I live, and I was honored to pray for her. Thank you Amy & Steve for sharing your treasure . . . A&F xoxo B"H

I'm so sorry about little Emma, my prayers are with all of you. Then the child opened its eyes, and looked up into the angel's beautiful face, which beamed with happiness, and at the same moment they were in heaven, where joy and bliss reigned. The child received wings like the other angel, and they flew about together, hand in hand. by Hans Christian Andersen

I can not imagine the pain that you are going through. I know that words from strangers can not ease the pain. I just want to extend my deepest sympathy and hopefully the comfort of knowing that many people are praying that God will carry you through this troublesome time. "During the most trying periods in my life, there is only one set of footprints. Why, when I needed you most, would you leave me?" "My precious, precious child. I love you and will never leave you. During the times where there is only one set of footprints is when I carried you." Love and prayers to you all.

Words can't express how deeply sorry I am for your loss. Emma touched so many lives in her short time here on earth, and she will live on in an everlasting legacy for those touched by her to raise awareness for childhood cancer. I thank you for sharing her life with us as she is truly a treasure. My prayers go out to the family that God will comfort you and help you through this.

I did not personally know Emma Joy or her family, but I wanted you to know she touched me unlike any other. Her life was so short but so full of purpose. I'm on a cancer journey also and she taught me how to live each day to the fullest. You and your entire family are in my prayers each day. Heaven will be so much sweeter with your little angel there.

Steve and Amy, My heart is breaking for the loss of this precious angel. I hope that you and your family will find some comfort in knowing how your Emma united a community and made many who would not otherwise have given a second thought to appreciating the time they have with their own little ones. Emma was a shining beam of love and hope here on this earth. She showed more courage and love than most people will ever see in a lifetime. She surely is an Angel now and holding the hand of her Heavenly Father and charming the other Angels in Heaven just as she charmed life she touched here on earth. May God give your hearts comfort in knowing that her pain is over and she is now smiling down on you and will forever be the beautiful baby that everyone loved so much. One day there will be a joyous reunion and your Emma will be waitng with that big sunny smile of hers. God Bless each of you and Rest in Peace sweet Angel.....you will be missed, but you will never be forgotten and your legacy will live on forever.

It was my pleasure to meet Emma and her family as one of her Make-A-Wish Volunteer. She was such a joy each time we were at her house. She was looking so forward to seeing the princess at Disney. She danced around like not a care in the world. God has a very special Angel with him looking over her family. She is dancing with not a one pain. Steve, Amy & boys you all are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless your family. Clara Johnson

To all of the Ford Family, I came to know about Emma through her Facebook page. And while I did not know her for a long time the time that I did share in her life has left an impact on all of us. In the coming days I hope you will remember her as dancing to her favorite Bieber song in her little tutu, that is how I will remember her, now she can show off her moves to Mamaw. But not only that, she was a strong fighter. Praying one day there is a cure for this monster we call cancer and that it did not come in time for Emma, please feel happy that she helped pave the way for others, the lives she has touched. Sending love from my family to yours.

To the Ford Family, I had come to know about Emma through your page on Facebook and while I did not know her a long time, for the time that we shared her life, it has left a major impact on us. She was such a strong little girl, such a fighter. I am praying for your family that in the coming days you remember how she danced in her little tutu and that now she is dancing with Mamaw showing off her stuff to all. One day they will help to find a cure for this monster that is cancer and while it was too late for Emma, know that she helped pave the way for others. God bless you all. Sending much love from my family to yours.

I will continue to pray for your family and friends as I cannot comprehend what they are feeling at this point in time. Your story, and others I have been following, have lead me to have a passion for finding a cure. I vow to spread awareness and do my part. Sending you, and your family and friends, huge hugs from Michigan.
