Emma Lee’s career was spent as co-owner and office manager of Tillman’s Plumbing Corporation until its sale. She later worked as an office assistant to local contractors and then as a secretary for the Florida Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. As a homemaker, she raised her two children and opened her home to many in the community and beyond.

After retirement, Emma Lee spent her time volunteering at her church and the Good Neighbor Place, but was best known for her extensive card-writing ministry. Emma Lee was a founder of the Adventurer program, which provides children with the opportunity to learn life-skills and discover God’s plan for their salvation. In her last days, Emma Lee’s faith never wavered, but was instead strengthened by the assurance of Christ’s soon coming.
