Emma peacefully passed April 23 2016 at the age of 80 to join her brothers and sisters in Heaven. As a beloved wife of George Vasiliou, loving mother of Ernie, Angelo, Libby and Anna and loving YiaYia of Kyle and Lily she was the "rock and glue "of the family. Emma faced life directly and simply. In her early days she loved to dance. Her cooking often brought the family together. She grew amazing potted flowers for the Garden Center and fired beautiful ceramic pieces for fun. Emma's most enjoyed pleasure was playing cards and stealing away once in awhile to play slot machines. Although she was short in stature her presence was bold. Her dynamic voice and presence will be missed dearly by all.
