2. Dear Friend and Loving Sister
Emily lived a life full of joy and happiness. With her sophistication and poise
she did and always will set an example of a perfect role model to her Phi
Sigma Sigma sisters. She became an initiated member of Phi Sigma Sigma
her sophomore year of college at Loyola University Chicago. Soon after, she
ran for a position and became our fundraising chair. Although our time with
Emily was cut short she left a lasting impact on our whole chapter.On
December 19th, 2011 when Emily unexpectedly passed away from a
stroke, everything stopped. We not only lost our great friend but a sister
very dear to our hearts.
Annual Stroke Awareness Event
Since Emily's passing Phi Sigma Sigma has started an annual philanthropy
event in her memory.The annual stroke event consists of a fundraiser
followed by a symbolic balloon release. This year we will be joining with
Sigma Chi, Nursing Council and Student Council to put on this event. We
hope to keep Emily's spirit alive and raise stroke awareness among
students on Loyola's campus. Not a day goes by where we do not miss
Emily, but we all know she is always in our thoughts and forever in our
hearts.
