It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Emily Rebecca Bailey, our beautiful daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece, aunt, and friend. Emily unexpectedly left this mortal life and returned to her Heavenly Father on November 23rd, 2017, at the young age of 22 years old.
Emily was born in Ogden, Utah on April 13th, 1995 but spent most of her life in Spanish Fork, Utah where she graduated from Spanish Fork High School. Emily was a great friend to many and was loved greatly by her family. She was a favorite aunt to her nieces and nephews and would play with them as if she was one of them. She was known for her ability to love everyone freely and loved to be the helping hand to others. Emily had a contagious laugh and smile that would lift anyone's spirit. She had an immense love for music, and a great interest in nature, health, nutrition, and school.
Emily loved to learn. She was extremely curious, always inquisitive, an incredibly deep thinker with a philosopher’s mind. She had found several passions that would ignite her soul, fully investing herself in each venture, making the impossible happen. Emily's greatest love was Christopher White. Chris and Emily brought lots of love, laughter, and light to each other lives. Her love for him was undeniable and his for her.
She is survived by her mother, Joanna Connolly (Jim Connolly); her father, David Bailey (Emily Fernandez Bailey); and her eleven siblings: Amy Miller (Scott Miller), Andrea Seastrand (Jared Seastrand), Krystal Billings (Adam Billings), Derrick Bailey (Leidy Bailey), Brian Bailey, Hannah Matthys (Michael Matthys), Michael Bailey, Lara Brimhall (Ryan Brimhall), Ammon Bailey, Aaron Bailey, and Mollie Bailey. She is also survived by her grandparents, Stanley Fred Pierce, Jerold S. Bailey, Sherry Bailey; the love of her life, Christopher White; many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, and uncles. She was predeceased by her grandmother, Fay Pierce.
