Growing up in Louisiana, Sonya has always been a Southern girl. Her life journey truly began when she went to Oklahoma for college. It was there that she met the love of her life, Sid Emmert. They were married while in college. Sonya graduated, with a degree in business administration, ready to start her life alongside Sid.
Sid became a homebuilder. Together, they were able to invest in real estate, owning duplexes and immersing themselves in property management. While Sid crafted homes with his skilled hands, Sonya handled the bookwork.
Sonya felt truly fulfilled in life when they welcomed two beautiful daughters into their lives. Sonya found fulfillment in nurturing their family and actively participating in their children’s school and church activities.

It has been thirteen years since Sid’s death. This year Sonya faced another profound loss with the passing of their first daughter to cancer, a reminder of life’s fragility.
