.227 Emily Curl

Speaking with Emily today was both soothing and a reminder of why I loved going to high school with her. She’s just unconditionally kind and gentle with her approach, and that unassuming compassion of hers is something that me and so many others appreciated back then and still to this day. She’s a shining example of what it means to be good.

When I think back to either the last time I saw Emily in person or to just random moments in high school, what pops out fairly consistently is her contagious and welcoming smile and laughter. She has this way of inviting you in to the conversation and moment with her positive energy, and it’s infectious. Emily is wonderfully intelligence and a true delight to talk with and be around.

Emily, thank you for being so kind to me and for being so constant with that love and warmth. Thank you for your honesty and respect, and thank you for being such a loyal and trustworthy human who I know for a fact that so many people love and adore. Thank you for being so fun and sweet. Thank you, Emily, for being you.
