Emma Aileen Prickett Brown was on born May 6, 1922, on a farm near Olivet, S.D., the daughter of Grover and Emma (Zanter) Prickett. She was received into the Kingdom of God’s grace through the Sacrament of Holy Baptism as an infant at St. Peter's Lutheran Church in Clayton, S.D. At the age of 13, Emma renewed her baptismal vows also in St. Peter's Lutheran Church. Emma grew up in the Milltown-Parkston, S.D., area. She attended elementary school at District 78 and graduated from Parkston High School in 1939. The years following, she worked in Denver, Colo., Portland, Ore., and Newark, N.J. She married Alfred D. Brown on Sept. 19, 1946, and moved to a farm near Scotland, S.D., where they resided for 45 years. The union was blessed with a daughter and son. Alfred passed away in 1990 and in 1991, Emma moved to Yankton, where she helped elderly people so they could stay in their own homes. Emma was active in St. Paul's Lutheran Church and later in St. John's Lutheran Church in Yankton. She loved to sing in the choir and was an accomplished soloist. She really enjoyed her years singing with a group named the Balladeers. She was a member of the VFW Auxiliary in Scotland, and the Civic Club. Her next love was traveling, having been in all 50 states and also making many trips to Europe, United Kingdom and Scandinavia. In thanksgiving for her life is her daughter, Suzanne (Wendell) Simmonds of Sioux City; grandson, Keevan (Tanya) Simmonds and great-grandsons, Tommy, Ty, Blake and Beckham Simmonds of Marion, Iowa; granddaughter, Jessica (Mason) Lavaway, a great-granddaughter, Morgan and great-grandsons, Orrin and Jesson Lavaway of Akron, Iowa; one sister, Lila Thorp of Sioux City; sisters-in-law, Dorothy Prickett of Yankton, and Marian Prickett of Mitchell, S.D.; best friend, Vi Ranney; caregiver who was like her second daughter, Carla Maibaum of Yankton; and senior companion, Nona Bitsos of Yankton. Those going ahead to greet her were her husband, Alfred Brown; her son, Michael K. Brown; four sisters, Vera Prickett, Eva Michaelsen, Helen Zomer and Wilma Stainbrook; and five brothers, Andrew, Virgil, Leland, Vernon and Joe Prickett (who gave his life in World War II). Please take time on Friday to visit Emma's family and help celebrate her life. She would love a reunion of her, Alfred's, Mike's and Suzi's friends. We will be serving homemade pies in Emma's honor. Feel free to stop in the chapel for special music and reflection. Drop in any time and stay as long as you like. Emma would expect everyone to have a good time. Anyone who is reading this is genuinely encouraged to come to Emma's funeral on Saturday to hear a special sermon on heaven. It does not matter if you know her and her family. We would love to have you. Pallbearers will be Wendell Simmonds, Scott Prickett, Randy Johnson, Terry Simantel, Gale Conrad and Duane Dean.
