Tadje, Emma Cecile Ashworth Emma Cecile Ashworth Tadje 1916 ~ 2005 Emma Cecile Ashworth Tadje, age 88, returned to her heavenly home and eternal companion, Philip, September 25, 2005. She was born November 26, 1916 in Salt Lake City to Harold W. Ashworth and Ellen Cecile Giauque. She grew up across from Liberty Park with her two younger sisters and two brothers. Being the eldest daughter, she was given a lot of responsibility in helping at home beginning at a young age and was given the nickname "busy Liz." Emma enjoyed sports and was especially skilled with a tennis racket and baseball bat. She married her sweetheart, Philip Frederick Tadje on September 12, 1939 in the Salt Lake Temple. Emma was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where she served in many capacities. A highlight of her church service was a mission she and Phil fulfilled together in Oakland, California, 1979-81. Members in the Bay area still comment on their mission and the continuing impact of their love and kindness. She was an exceptional pianist and organist, and many were blessed and inspired by her musical talents. She instilled the love of music in the lives of her children and grandchildren and was a great supporter of their music education. She had many other talents - a great cook, organizer, compassionate friend and businesswoman. With the help and encouragement of her mother, Phil and Emma established Anser-Fone in 1954, one of the first telephone answering services in Salt Lake City. This business was a family effort, but Emma was the heart and soul of it for many years. Later, there was time for fun, too; she and Philip loved to attend Jazz basketball games together and with friends and family. Emma and Phil were great examples of selfless service, spending a lifetime caring for and providing for the needs and wants of others, unsolicited and without fanfare. They particularly enjoyed the fellowship of family and friends. A special group of friends were members of "the 49ers", a group of returned missionaries and their wives from the Swiss-German mission, with whom they shared many years of special memories. A scripture from Joshua 24:15 describes their legacy as parents: "Choose ye this day whom ye will serve, as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Emma was preceded in death by her loving husband, Philip, her parents, a brother Harold W. Ashworth Jr., and a sister June A. Johnson. She is survived by her daughters: Cecile Linford (Rulon) of Oakland, California; Kathleen Anderson (Jeffrey) of Salt Lake City; Marilyn Johnson (Phillip) of Hewitt, Texas; her sons: David P.

She slipped away into our Heavenly Fathers arms on Tuesday, September 27, 2005 in South Jordan, UT. Amberlee's life on earth was seen not through her eyes but her heart. She could brighten a day with her usual "good morning" or a gentle kiss on your hand. Her powerful spirit was felt by everyone that knew her. Her physical challenges prevented her from walking, but with her sheer determination to discover this earth she compensated by rolling. She was a polite, cheerful and happy little girl and our "little princess". She loved her friends at school, teachers and her family. She loved music and would giggle at her favorite, Wheels on the Bus. Amberlee was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and was always saying "Church". She loved to hear the kids sing and laugh. As she grew into a young woman, her problems seemed to multiply but her strength, grace and beauty shined only brighter. For the last eight years, part of her time was spent with the Michael and Mary Salls family, who lovingly helped care for her. They loved her and gave her two sisters, Jenny and Monique. They along with us marveled at her many accomplishments. She made gentle men out of her three strong brothers. She taught them many life lessons on compassion, service and love. Survivors include her parents Roger and Patti Ward; brothers, Tayler (Jessica), Lance (Ashly) and Preston; grandparents; Rachael Webb, Stanley and Emmalou Ward, and nephew, Saywer; many aunts, uncles and cousins who loved her dearly.
