Gan fod gan Em wir ddiddordeb ym mhobl, eu hanesion a'u diddordebau medrai bontio cenhedlaethau a chenhedloedd. Medrai wrando gyda'r gorau, ond roedd dawn y cyfarwydd ynddo yn gryf, y storiwr chwedlonol o hanes Cymru, y 'raconteur' cyfoes. Meddai ar gyfoeth o straeon, gwybodaeth ddofn ac eang o bynciau amrywiol a'r awydd - ac y gallu - godi hwyl ym mhle bynnag yr oedd. A hynny trwy gan a diod cymdeithasol, y personoliaeth garismataidd yna sydd troi pennau pobl, yn gwneud argraff. Mae'r tripiau i'r Hunter Valley, lawr y Great Ocean Road neu dren dros nos i Sydney wedi serio yn fy nghof am byth. Pwy arall fydde gwneud siwr fod gwydraid o siampen yn ei law wrth i ni sefyll ger y 'gegin' ar 747 wrth ddweud 'co fe, mynydd Ararat.' Diolch am dy gwmni Em. As it's a Friday, it's fitting that I have a drink next to my elbow as I look through the photos of Em's various trips and adventures. Such a life force that shone so brightly, with the ability to raise the spirits of others, whatever the situation, that deep genuine interest in others, and quiet pride in his family as he talked about Alex, Ben, Dylan and Ffion. The years between meetings might be long, but each time we met it felt like seconds. It was not only the fun and many laughs that made Em such great company, but that all to rare feeling of being in the company of a good friend whose enthusiasm for life bridged generations and nationalities. Diolch / Cheers Em.
