Once in a lifetime you turn 16 – Emma Carolyn Krueger turned 16 on Jan. 23rd. Emma was thrown an amazing sweet 16 surprise birthday party at the Camp Branch Saginaw Civic Center. Emma was blown away by the love and kindness of all who attended from near and far– this was the greatest gift she could ever receive.

She also got the gift of her dreams – a concert by her favorite recording artist, Steve Moakler. Moakler’s music is featured in the soon to be nationally release feature film, OctoberBaby – which was written, directed and produced by Shelby County’s own Jon & Andy Erwin. The night was priceless – it is a night Emma will never forget.

Happy 16th Birthday, Emma! You’re beautiful, amazing, tenderhearted, kind, and most of all a beautiful reflection of your Savior! “…from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.” Colossians 1:9-10

Emma is the daughter of Randy & Rebecca Krueger and the sister of Megan Krueger. The granddaughter of Randy Krueger of Indialantic, FL & the late Carol Krueger, Alan Godwin of Birmingham and Martha Godwin of Maylene.
