Emily passed away peacefully in Coquitlam, BC. She was generous and caring with a love for adventure and a thirst for learning. She was born and raised in Nelson, BC and attended Normal School in Victoria. She taught in various interior communities and Victoria before settling in Nelson, where she married John in 1948 and raised her family. Emily returned to teaching in 1963 until moving to Victoria with the family in 1969. She was predeceased by her husband, John; her sister, Doris Brown and most recently, her brother-in-law, Robert Brown. She will be dearly remembered by her children, Louise, Theo, John “Jack”, Warren and his wife, Lara; her beloved granddaughter, Caroline and only nephew, Dave Brown and his lovely family. Emily loved children and in lieu of flowers, she would be pleased if you did something special with a child or if you made a donation to UNICEF, an organization where she spent many happy hours as a volunteer. A Funeral Service will be held at McCall’s Downtown, Johnson & Vancouver Streets in Victoria, BC at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, February 8, 2013. Condolences may be offered to the family at
