Emily Joy (Prugh) Oates Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on August 24, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Emily Joy (Prugh) Oates of Souderton, Pennsylvania. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Emily Joy (Prugh) Oates to show support.
As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Emily may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.
She is survived by: her husband Rev. Trevor James Oates; her parents, Mark V. Prugh and Holly Prugh (Moyer); her sons, Paxton James and Carson Mark; and her sister Bethany Lynn Creel (Steve).
For those desiring to do so, contributions may be made in her memory for the establishment of an educational fund for her sons. Checks can be made payable to Trevor Oates and please list in the memo line: The Paxton and Carson Oates Educational Fund.
