Where to next?
- In a way, this is what Anthony Emmi wanted, his body tended to at home by family and friends. Anthony's brother Al watches as funeral director and family friend Matt Cheche and Ron Oughterson prepare to wheel the body out of the Emmi's Aurelius home. When Natalie Emmi looks at this photograph now, she says it is comforting to know Anthony died on his own terms. "I felt sad and I felt glad it was done the way he wanted," Natalie said. "A hospital is so impersonal. But at home, he's got everybody around him. We were with him until the end."
- Since last July, the Emmi family has struggled with the loss of their patriarch, Anthony. While his legacy lives on through the 300+ buildings he built around Auburn, it continues growing every day through the new homes built by Emmi Construction, now run by his son Louis. "We hurt very, very much," the Rev. Robert Belligotti said. "This causes us great pain in our hearts. But, we can begin to feel good about Anthony. He was a master builder indeed."
