  • A young girl, Emilee Giamanco, is in the fight of her life, as she is battling with D.I.P.G. - terminal brain cancer. Through her family’s love and a history of overcoming adversity, she is filled with strength and a will to fight this battle head on. So much that she has inspired her entire community of Boulder City.
    With her 11th birthday just days away, the family was planning a small drive by parade, but the people of Boulder City had something else in mind. And, thanks to a heartfelt letter from Emilee’s aunt, Lori Tesch, the FOX5 Surprise Squad called in a few more friends to give this special birthday girl a magical surprise!
    FOX5 Surprise Squad is sponsored by United Nissan, America First Credit Union, & Albertsons/Vons.
    If you would like to help the family, a GoFundMe has been set up for donations at gf.me/u/yphip7

    Emilee Amber Giamanco, age 11, of Boulder City, NV passed away after a courageous battle with Cancer. She was born on June 18, 2009 in Las Vegas, NV to Joseph and Marissa Montoya Giamanco. Emilee attended Elementary School at Andrew J Mitchell and Martha P King.
    Emilee was a kind hearted and compassionate girl. She loved to have fun with her sister Natalee; putting on make-up, doing nails, and dancing to their favorite music. She also loved to have nerf wars and push her brother Preston on the swings. She enjoyed skate boarding and riding her bike and was into BMX racing. She was very creative and loved to make and play with slime. She was very athletic and enjoyed gymnastics. She loved to be comfortable wearing soft clothing and being surrounded by her many stuffed animals. The one thing she loved more than her stuffed animals was animals mostly puppies.
    Emilee is survived by her parents Joseph Giamanco and Marissa Giamanco; a sister Natalee Giamanco; brother Preston Giamanco; grandparents Joseph and Pat Giamanco, Daniel and Estela Montoya and Patricia and Jimmy Rodrigues.
    Funeral Service were held on Saturday, January 16, 2021 at The Central Christian Church in Henderson. Emilee was laid to rest in the Boulder City Cemetery. In lieu of flowers please make memorial donations to Candlelighters Childhood Cancer Foundation of Nevada. Family and friends can sign an online memorial guestbook at www.bouldercityfamilymortuary.com
    To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Emilee Amber Giamanco, please visit our floral store.

      Maybe they disliked the fact that such a beautiful young princess is fighting for her life because of the horrible cancer. Well at least that's what I hope the reason is, because if they disliked it for any other reason they're heartless and have no soul. Anyways, please stay safe and healthy. Xoxo

    I am just happy she was happy. My grandma once told me the thing about only having to be "here" till we have learned what we needed to "here".
    What if the last two things she needed to experience were the best and the worst? Disney is Awesome. I hope you have all the fun you can!
