Watch Fox 23, Chan
6, or Chan 2 for more on this unfolding story today (Sept. 23) as
it seemed that Jimmy Moore's container of ashes of his granddaughter (Emmerson
Paige O'Rourke) had been found. But it was actually Emmy's ashes belonging
to another family member. Jimmy wore the ashes on a chain around his neck
at Friday's football game at Sallee Field Sept. 18th. They came loose
sometime during the evening and could be just about anywhere on the home
side of the field. Many community members have searched already, including
the family, band, baseball team, and coaches ... but the search continues
today. Baby Emma died July 12, 2015, at age 10 months. -- Ted Wright 2pm

Jimmy Moore had just about concluded an interview
with Fox 23 at Sallee Field mid-day today when Police Capt. Daniel Boggs
arrived with information that a similar sounding container had been turned
into Collinsville Police. Channel 2 & 6 interview were pending and
all moved to the Police Station for what was assumed to be a happy conclusion
to the story. It turned out instead, that the "found" container
was inside a backpack belonging to Moore's son. Each family member has
a similar container of Emmy's ashes and this was not the container being
searched for. |

I
feel like I'm on some twisted version of Antiques Road Show. While
doing an interview the Captain of the Collinsville Police Department
arrived and said he had Emmy's ashes. I was sooo happy!!!! Went
to the police station and they were Emmy's ashes but not the ones
I had. They were Rocky's. They were in his backpack and someone
turned it in thinking the ashes were drugs. I went from elated to
deflated. Three news crews were there to capture this crazy order
of events. Her ashes are still there somewhere.-- Jimmy Moore 9/23/2015 |
