Emily Clothier Dies Skiing Accident | PLACERVILLE . INFO

Hi Patti,
I was in Tahoe skiing on Saturday, April 5 when a medevac helicopter landed at the base of Heavenly. Not knowing who you were but seeing you in distress, I immediately began to pray for you. It was only when others had left you alone that I, the big burley guy, came up to offer a word of comfort and to let you know that at least one person was praying for you.
It was then that I first heard of your daughter, Emily. My heart is still aching for you, Steve and the kids. I cannot imagine what you had gone through. The helicopter and ambulance only served to open the wounds that had just begun to heal. You were gracious enough to allow me to pray for you. Thank you for that privilege.
Once back at the resort where I was staying I searched online for information on Emily. In reading her obituary I was so thrilled to read: "Emily accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Savior in 2005." As painful as it is, there is great comfort in knowing that she is in the presence of our Great God and Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ.
There isn't hardly a day that goes by that you and your family don't come to mind. The family Clothier has been in my prayers, my family's prayers, and the prayers of many of our friends at church since then. I will continue to pray for you, the family, and friends as God brings you all to mind.
Now, may the God of all comfort continue to keep you close to Himself as you continue the healing process.
Your brother in Christ,
Rudy Yakym, Jr.

Squimish Squirrel,
Oh baby, We have so many amazing memories.
You were the type of a girl who could light up a room with a simple smile. Your laugh was contagious...you would laugh everyday and all day at cross country; and usually at the most random things.
You would take the most random pictures of the funniest things...Dan filling up gas, a Semi-truck, you driving the big torpedo, etc...
You made me laugh. I love you forever and ever.
Hugs and Kisses,
Becca.

Hi Patti,
Since our "chance" meeting in the parking lot at the base of Heavenly, you, Steve and the family have been in my prayers a lot. I cannot think of skiing without a thought of Emily crossing my mind.
From all that others have written, she was such a wonderful young lady. She is a real testimony to the wonderful parents who raised her. I look forward to the day in heaven when I can meet her myself.
May our Great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, continue to richly bless you as you long for that sweet reunion as well.

dear clothiers,
i was just thing about you and i wish i was there to hike with you to Emily's tree. i asked my mom if i could fly, but the plane tickets cost to much. i just want you to know i did sing happy birthday to Emily and prayed to her. i miss you and hpoe to see you soon! love you all!

we miss you emily

we miss you

Emily, your story is everywhere!
Although I never knew you personally, I can plainly see that you were a wonderful young lady, as you have clearly touched the hearts of many.

Emily. I miss you so much. Life seems pointless without you. It's different that's for sure. Where's your smiling happy face when I need it. Where's the advice, the laughs, the hugs? Your our angel now, no one forgot you. You should have seen your 1 year, but in a way I know you did, you were shining down on us, making sure we didn't forget. We didn't. I miss you beautiful face, I want one more hug. I want to be able to say goodbye. Not a day has gone by that u haven't run thru my mind. I love ya Em. I'll never forget u<333
fly high, hunn, fly highh

Emily,
I miss you. At least 10 times a day my thoughts rush to you. I can't help it. We all miss you. I want one last hug, I want to be able to look into you shining face and say goodbye. I never got too, none of us did. You were always smiling Em. That was one thing i really admired in you. You were bright and different too, you didn't care what people thought, you had a ton of friends, because you had something in common with everyone and you loved to have friends. I remember you always wanted to be the most popular girl in the school. well hunn, right now u are. Everyone knows your name, your story, you. You were crazy, wild, fun, amazing and a true friend. I love you Em. I'll see you again, I know I will. I'll never forget you, ever, no one will. You know the other day there was a cloud hanging over Heavenly, it was shaped kinda like a chairlift, you were on that cloud, I know it. You came back to check on us, I love you! Race in peace hunn, rip it up!
Love Alwayss

Em[ily]. You were such an amazing person. I remember the day of the accident. I was over at a friends house actually. My phone vibrated in my pocket, expecting it to be a normal text from my friends i opened it happily. That's when the world came crashing down. I can't remember exactly what the message said, but it gave me the news, Emily had passed away. I had to go home right away. You go through my head everyday! How couldn't you? You were a remarkable person em, everyone misses you. I know i do. I think you would be proud of us. The hardest part of this is I know why God took you. Emily you were such an amazing person, he needed you. You were always smiling, laughing, being the best person you could be. I'll see you again someday=) but until then, I LOVE YOU!
