Emily Joan “Emmy” Wysocki was born on April 21, 1989, in Grand Island, to Roger and Kathy (Gregoski) Wysocki. She was a constant companion to her big brother, Brent. Emily attended school at Burwell Elementary, graduating from Burwell High School in 2008. After high school, she made her home in Ord and was a client of Mid-Nebraska Independent Services in Ord. Following some health problems, she moved back home in Burwell, with her parents, in 2019, but continued going to MNIS in Ord.
Emily was an avid reader and enjoyed books all her life. She loved romance novels by her favorite author, Nora Roberts, and usually read them twice or more. She also loved movies, especially musicals and Disney, and had an extensive collection. She loved seeing movies on the big screen at the Rodeo Theater, and she loved their buttered popcorn.
Emily collected Webkinz stuffed animals and participated in Webkinz World on her tablet. She had a “zoo” of various critters, but loved tigers, wolves, and dolphins the most.
Emily was a child at heart and soul, and often told it like it was. Especially if she didn’t agree with you.
Survivors include her parents, Kevin and Kathy Carson of Burwell; a brother, Joshua Carson of Burwell; a sister, Cecelia Carson of Omaha; her grandmothers, Emily Gregoski of St. Paul and Ruth Carson of North Platte; and numerous uncles, aunts, cousins, and friends.
She was preceded in death by her father, Roger Wysocki; a brother, Brenton Wysocki; grandfathers, William Gregoski, Galen Wysocki, and James Carson; and grandmother, Joan Wysocki.
