Emma was a long time cook, baby sitter, maid and loving supporter of The Lordsmen. She prepared many meals while traveling down the road on a 40 foot bus, especially biscuits and gravy. She loved supporting her family as they sang. Emma also ministered with her husband Jack and her brother Blaine Wehrle for several years as The Belle Trio. She always had a compassion about singing for the Lord and continued as a member of the Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church Choir. Emma’s faith helped sustain her as she lived the past 5 years at Cedar Ridge Nursing Home in Sissonville. We want to thank them for the love, support and compassion they showed to her and us as a family. We also thank Hospice Care for their support for her and the family.
