Mr. and Mrs. Shoup, I don't have the words to express my deepest sympathy for your loss - a loss felt and shared by the entire Unisys community across the U.S. and in fact the world. Emily worked very closely with my Stealth architects and developers, always with an eye to how our customers perceive our products, which provided very useful insights to our engineers. On a more personal note though, Emily was much more than a work colleague to myself and many others here at Unisys. For example, we often met for dinner and drinks when my son, who is a musician, was performing at the local pubs. I know how much support you gave Emily over the last couple of years, but of course that's what parents do. Nothing I or anyone can say will relieve your sorrow, but I will offer what my cousin, who lost her son said to me when my wife and I lost our daughter. You will never get over this, but you can get through it. My prayers and thoughts are with you, Rob Johnson

So sorry for such an untimely loss. I did not know Emily but I know her Father’s wit and so I feel that I knew her in some way. Her departure leaves a hole in this world for all.

Emily wasn't just a coworker, she was family. She always knew how to make anyone laugh and smile. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Jared Poetter [Eagan, Minnesota Unisys Office]
