Emru took his last breath just before 10 pm tonight. He died peacefully surrounded by his family.
He taught me how to live. He taught me how you are supposed to die.
Emru's name means RESPECT.
Emru, the person, also means compassion, learning, teaching, sharing, love, integrity, honesty, and inspiration.
He taught a lot of people a lot of things, but he spent 2008 teaching people how to reach out to one another in a whole new way. If you carry some of this forward, it will be a year even better spent.
Thank you for being part of his journey.

A Note From Jessica, November 11, 2008 at 11:26 pm
Emru, I wish you my best, wherever you are. I want you to know that you are someone I admire. It has been my greatest honour to have known you, however briefly this was. You are someone that I greatly admire. And knowing that you are no longer with us in body, brings me sadness. I was rooting for you! But knowing that a part of you is in my heart helps, and knowing that I am in yours too. I hope that I helped your rough ride be a little easier.
You were an amazing person, and I believe.

You touched my heart, you touched my life and I believed everything would be ok. God but I wish you stayed.
