Listen to Obituary
Savannah Rachelle Emett was born November 16, 2004 in Salt Lake City, Utah. She and her twin DayVon were welcomed into a home with Dad- Steven, Mom- Narda, and proud big sister- Madison. Four years later she gained another big sister- Lilly followed by two baby brothers- Kordell and Paxton.
Savannah was a talented writer and artist, and an amazing sister and friend. She was a dancer that loved center stage and gave the biggest and best hugs. She had a smile that could light up a room. She loved to read, paint, sculpt, and aspired to become a makeup artist and cosmetologist. She left us too soon and we will miss her every day.
She is survived by parents Steve and Narda Emett, siblings Madison (Kaden) Jenkins, Lillian, DayVon, Kordell, and Paxton Emett, grandparents David and Connie Emett, and Vergene Tanner, many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. She is preceded in death by brother Dakota, grandfather Zoland Tanner, and birthmother Natika Brown.

It is with a heavy heart that I mourn the loss of your Savannah with you. I remember talking with you when the twins first became a part of the family. I marveled at your dedication as parents and your desire to share your love with them. I have watched as you all have grown over the years. The journey has taken you to so many new and uncharted spaces. This space, of all spaces... It is one that asks the impossible of a family. I can't imagine the strength it takes to let your daughter move ahead on this road. As you walk this path, please know that you are not alone. I take comfort in my knowledge of your deep and unending faith. I have no doubt that you do too. I send all my thoughts and hope that you may find moments of peace as you say your final goodbyes. While I cannot be there in person, I am there in spirit. The other day, my class and I took a moment of silence to send our healing thoughts to every parent, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, cousin, grandparent... who is grieving the loss of a loved one. It was a somber moment, but it was a moment filled with an understanding of the gift of time we are give to spend together with those we love. My students and I will take another moment of silence on Friday to honor your daughter and all the other young people whose lives have been lost this year. Thinking of you with all my love, strength, and friendship - becca

Dear Emmett Family,
I am sorry to be so slow in sending my condolences to your family. Please know that they are sincere while tardy. Savannah and all of your children were such fun and delightful children to have at school. You were and are such obviously wonderful parents. I was so sorry to hear of the mental health challenges that Savannah faced. They are far too common in our world today. I am so sorry for her pain. I have a testimony that she is now in a place of peace and has left those earthly struggles behind. I hope that you can feel peace as well in the days ahead. It was a privilege to know each of you at Overlake. Sincerely, Jan Johnson
