Emily’s elder sister said “She couldn’t cope with her world closing in and plans being canceled and being stuck inside. It terrified her.” Emily’s family mentioned her on Facebook that “our beautiful, funny, talented, and a little bit crazy daughter and sister.” They also said, “We are all absolutely devastated but also immensely proud of everything she achieved in her life”.
She suffered autism so she helped so many others to cope up with it. A lot of people messaged after her death about how she helped them through hard times of their own.
