Earl Emmons entered the presence of his Lord Jesus on Monday, November 16, 2009, from his home in Pemberton, NJ. Born the youngest of 4 children to Howard and Maud (Clevenger) Emmons, in Vincentown, he moved to the farm in Pemberton at the age of 4. After graduating from Pemberton High School, he worked his father's dairy farm until it became his.
He was pre-deceased by his wife, Jeanne Roberts Emmons, to whom he was married for nearly 56 years, and by his sons, Earl Dallas, Jr (1943) and Donald S (2002).
Active in the dairy industry, Earl served in the Burlington County Farmers Co-operative (later Agway) and the Burlington County Milk Producers Co-operative, while also serving on the New Jersey Milk Producers Association. Starting in 1960, he was the Pemberton Township Tax Assessor for 18 years. When he retired he was appointed by the Governor to serve as a Commissioner of the Burlington County Board of Taxation, being reappointed for a total of 15 years.
When Dallas' life was taken in a tragic accident, Jeanne and Earl began to search for spiritual truth and meaning in life. Earl reaffirmed his commitment to Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior which he had made as a young fellow at the First Baptist Church in Pemberton. With a new assurance of his salvation through Jesus' death on the cross in his place, and a deep love for the Word of God, he began to devote his energies to the local church. He served as Deacon, Elder and/or Men's Bible teacher at First Baptist, Calvary Baptist, Victory Baptist and GraceWay Bible Church (Hamilton, NJ). He taught a Bible study in his home for many years. He also served on the Board of Directors of the Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry.
Earl is remembered by his children for fervently loving Jesus and His church, for consistently applying the principles of God's word and for faithfully meeting the needs of others. He modeled a life of hard work and faithful service.
Earl is survived by his sons, Dick (Fran) & Walt (Brenda), and his daughter-in-law Evelyn, by 8 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren, and by his sister, Mrs. Mabel Cross (Basking Ridge, NJ).

News Tribune (Tacoma)
April 13, 2016On March 20, 2016, Margaret B. Niesen passed in the early morning at the age of 96. Margaret was born on December 13, 1919 to Charles Leon Whitney and Hazel Waite.
Margaret was a lifelong Tacoma resident, and graduate of Lincoln High School.
Margaret was preceded in death by her husband and love of her life, Billy Carter Niesen, and her son Gregory Carter Niesen.
She is survived by her daughter Linda Margaret Witte, grandson Richard Dean Witte, granddaughter Marcey Jean Niesen, and her great-granddaughters Ashley Mikaela Witte and Tara Mariko Witte.
Margie loved both the fine arts and crafting her own art items, which were proudly displayed throughout our homes. She was a prolific producer of art in many forms: painting, ceramics, flower arrangement, and crochet. Observing birds and wildlife, whether "in town" or at "the beach," always brought her joy. Furthermore, she was an active golfer and one of the dancers of the Daughters of the Nile. Margaret never left the house without looking like a "million bucks" and carried herself with an air of aristocracy even if that entailed wearing jeans and a sweatshirt. Margaret will be deeply missed by all of those who knew her.
