Emily was born May 11, 1994 in Youngstown, OH to Amy Bowser Montgomery and was lovingly adopted at age 8 by Bruce Montgomery Sr.
Emily moved to NC with her family Feb 2015. She was a licensed esthetician. After graduating from Aveda Institute with honors and perfect attendance, she dove right into eyelash extensions and became a master stylist within 6-7 months; something to be proud of. She believed everyone had natural beauty and that her services were only meant to enhance those and decided to open her own salon in Cary, NC to broaden her services. She was excellent at what she did and was a true people person and pleaser.
If you knew Emily, you would see beauty, strength, light, love, compassion. She was honest, sometimes to a fault. She was fierce. She was sassy. She was loyal. She was joy and pure magic. And her smile and laughter lit up a room. We only wish she saw herself the way we saw her.
She is survived by her son, Greyson Montgomery (whom she loved dearly); parents, Amy and Bruce; sisters, Shannon (Scott) Bellino and Samantha (Scott) Domes; brother, Bruce Montgomery Jr and many extended family members to include grandmothers, Joan Bowser (lovingly known as Grammy) and Joyce Ferrell Bowser; uncles, Doug (Leslie) Bowser and Jeff (Marci) Bowser; aunts, Megan (Bill) Clark and Kimberly Bowser; cousins, Kayla, Cortni, Nathan and Julia; nieces, Sofia and Reese; and nephews, Roman and Everett.
Our family is so appreciative of the love and support provided by so many.
She is greatly missed.
Due to COVID-19, there will be a private ceremony for family. A memorial will be planned in Ohio sometime in 2021.
