<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Born in 1905 and living into 2015, Emma Didlake was old enough to see horse drawn vehicles replaced with automobiles, dirt roads into paved roads, silent movies, the radio developed, talking pictures, biplanes and airships replaced by single wing fighters and a host of other inventions which appeared in the 20th century.<br />Prayers for her family as they grieve her passing.
