Emmanuelle Richard, known as Em in the local SoCAL community, passed on Tuesday April 20, 2010. She was 37-years old.
Em was an RV friend that I meet when she wanted to get her formation flying waiver. She built her 180 HP Constant Speed RV-4 and trained with the Black Jacks when she lived in Seattle. We became friends during her local formation practice for her FFI Check Ride. We flew together locally and in several air shows.
I found out about her departure yesterday and there is a void inside me. I am not one that is good at expressing my emotions in writing and am having a difficult time trying to put these feelings in writing. There was an article published about her in the ?Van Nuys Aviation & Business Journal? in February 2004. This is that article.
I miss you Em. My prayers go out for your family.
Thanks Doug for having this area available for us.
