Emma J is in.heaven. very good she sang Ave Maria Plena. God be praised!!!
This was a lovely tribute ❤😢
🇫🇷 Emma a rejoint Jane et tous ces jeunes partis trop tôt. Mes prières vont vers vous ! 🙏❤️🕊️💐
🇫🇷 En voyant toutes ces personnes qui ne sont plus parmi nous, je ne peux retenir mes larmes. Elles doivent faire partie de la Chorale des Anges 🙏😇🕊️
Hits me hard with Emma. Such a sweet young woman. Gone way to soon. Voice of an angel. I'm so glad she got to live her dream of performing.
You took the words out my mouth. ❤
The most shyest girl in the contest and she had to die of a debilating (however you spell it) disease!! And such an amazing and angelic voice!! I am shocked and upset to learn that Emma Jones had died!! Crying!!
Same feeling with me. Shocked
A cancer doctor told me there's been a huge upsurge of aggressive cancers since 2021. What happened in 2021? Think about it.
What an enormous loss. She had the voice of an angel
Me too. I had no idea. I’m glad she got to know her talent before she passed.
Don't drop your tinfoil hat.
Emma Jones 23 singing Ava Maria and then dying of cancer. Glad her family has this clip of her singing
Yes indeed, it must mean the world to them. It’s so beautiful.
She is the only contestant in these clips that I remember. She came on so shy, but her voice & singing was beautiful. She seemed such a sweet girl. So sad she passed away so young - life just isn’t fair.
I'm so shocked about Emma Condolences to her family this is still so fresh may she S.I.H.P. Also just today on the news I heard that there is now a drug for Sickle Cell being trialled.
There's an old gospel song by Dottie Rambo titled, " Mama's teaching angels how to sing"😢
Glad they loved her.
Emma had Multiple Myeloma which attacks multiple organs by traveling through the blood. Rest in Peace Emma. I will remember you as I fight the same cancer!
Maryvthinking of you all the best mary
Wishing you much strength for ur fight.
Much love and strength to you xxxx
I wish you peace, Mary. God's Blessings on thee. 💞🙏🇺🇦
Get well soon Mary!!!
It's weird, how much sympathy and sadness at the same time one can feel for a total stranger. RIP. Emma.
We are all connected in this universe❤God bless you.🌸
I can't believe that poor Emma died, she was so lovely And what a voice Such a shame that she left us so young RIP. To all
I'm crying
Heaven has a true angel
@@barbarahayden5602 9:28
Sorrythat they passed away. Losing them is really sad. They all had talent I am honored that they chose to share with us. I believe getting on the show was a dream come true. May the Lord bless them .
Lghll@@barbarahayden5602
She was so young Emma Jones to pass on so young , beautiful voice. Remember her audition when she sang, Ava Maria.
Ave
RIP to all those contestents, young or old.
I didn't know Emma Jones had passed away. I'm really shocked. She was so young
Emma's family have a wonderful memory of their beautiful daughters Ava Maria audition🙏
Ave
Emma getting positive feedback from the judges with an expression like that was the first time nice things have been said to her.😢 Rest in peace sweet girl.❤
Poor Emma, she was such a shy sweetheart, may she R.I.P. 🪦 🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹
Totally agree so sad
GOD wanted is ANGEL BACK HOME ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤RIP LOVE ❤️ LOVE ❤️
Did I miss the reason why sweet Emma passed away? Does anyone know?
@@alminejacobsz786 she had cancer , you can Google it.
That's broke my heart, 💔 she was so sweet and timid rest in peace sweetheart 😭😭💔😭💔
May this angel's voice be heard and repeated frequently and for all time!
Simone’s horrible death makes me cry. It’s a HORRIBLE way to go. I’m sure she was so scared. I’ll think of her EVERY DAY!!! ❤️❤️❤️
My heart is broken about Emma! What a sweet soul!! Gone too soon! I lost my son in 2016. He was 27. I'll never understand this! 💔
So sorry to hear about your son. I don't think any of us could possibly understand why. I lost a sister when she was only 35 to Domestic violence. She sang like an Angel but nobody listened. I don't know why she went when she did. But I've learned over the last 17 years since she's been gone, that the only thing I need to understand is how much she was loved and is missed. And I hope we meet again.
I do not understand why good sweet people die and evil people like what lives above me stay slive
Emma is a angel I. Heaven
To take them out of what’s about to come upon us all (read the KJV or NASB or the LSB to find out more).
My condolences. What happened?
4:25 I can't believe that Simone died from domestic abuse, in such a brutal way, when she, or a loved one, battled a life-threatening disease. I did not see that one coming. I thought they were going to say the disease got her. That drew tears from me. I hope, at least, that the choir's time on stage brought some much needed blood donations. B+ blood is what they needed, every day. The name of the choir, B Positive, was a cool name but had a double meaning. I hope more than anything, that they achieved this goal of inspiring people to give blood so they and their families could survive this terrible disease. I am silently praying for all of them. I'm certain Simone is watching over them.
That shocked me, stabbed 70 times 😢 Beautiful lady taken in such a horrible way. May she be a peace. 🙏
Why would you say such a thing! makes me wonder if you're not like her boyfriend@@TapManDancer
Was her boyfriend a veteran who slipped through the cracks with undiagnosed PTSD? An horrific tragedy..... May she RIP....🙏
Even if her boyfriend is or was a veteran with PTSD, that doesn't mean he shouldn't be held accountable for murder. I know that's not what you specifically said but to me it was implied by even bringing it up and the comment about slipping through the cracks. A murderer is a murderer.
Omg yes such a young beautifle woman so much talent snuffed out at 31 in such a brutal way that man should not be allowed to live at all but beens he is grr I hope he has to live with what he did for the rest of it .I hope it eats him from the inside out . This made me cry grr
So sad. Simone's story was especially tragic! I couldn't believe what i was reading!
And The new Sickle Cell drug has started it's trial this week. 😢😢😢
I remember her❤Rest in peace beautiful soul 🙏
Emma was an angel sent from Heaven to show us all how beautiful we can be!
Yes yes an angel bless her ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What beautiful souls with equally lovely voices, humour and dancing. They are brave and heroic. God rest in peace and sing and dance on in Paradise.
16:18
I'm sad to hear of the passing of these wonderful performers, but happy they each got to enjoy the experience of thousands of people clapping and cheering for them.
Emma was amazing. Without these channels, we wouldnt see BGT in Canada. So sad. So young. 😢
Poor girl ..bless her ..rest in peace Emma..go soar with the angels baby girl xx
She was not a baby girl she was 24 or older... But yes she was and is an angel
@@glacyneyla-lifestyle she was 23
@@glacyneyla-lifestyle baby girl is just something we say to our girls where I come from my daughter is 43 but I still call her baby girl ...its an endearment...so yes go soar with the angels baby girl ...
My heart goes out to all the families and friends of these precious people. I know they are missed. ❤️
Singing with the angels 😇 our Emma ❤❤❤
It truly breaks my heart to see domestic violence victims lose her life in such a manner I pray for the families that lose loved ones like this, and if you’re in a situation like this know that there are resources available to you wherever you are in this world that you don’t have to succumb to this kind of violence that you are loved you are special and that you don’t deserve that I pray that you reach out to somebody don’t ever keep the silent speak up. It could be your own life you’re saving.
This was such a wonderful tribute to these BGT performers! Thank you so much for doing this!
I love this song and I love her singing. May she rest in peace 😭
That’s why I love this show, everyone gets to show their talent. Don’t ever change the format!
I was so proud of Emma ... I am so sorry she isn't with us anymore ❤
God Bless you Emma.singing in heaven..
The Angels needed another beautiful voice fly high and sing in the heavens Emma R.I.P
I’m just extremely grateful that everyone of these folks got to go out onto that stage and experience and receive the audience appreciation, that right there meant more to each one of them than than anyone could possibly imagine
O, Emma Jones … what can we say, as those still here, that won’t sound horrible, and schlocky and crass, about a person like you, with the voice and face of an angel … now gone from us to be among them? I wish you the best and gentles rest, you sweet, shy, glorious spirit. You will be missed so deeply by so many. Thank you for having the tremendous courage it took to share your gift with us while you were here. We will cherish it always.
For the love of GOD my heart is breaking for Emma. She was such a talented yet humble soul. She reminds me of my daughter who has NO confidence despite her beauty and worth to the world. 😭😭😭😭😭 What a shock. I'm truly heartbroken. 💔💔💔
God bless all these beautiful souls, they will be greatly missed
I don’t know why, but the thought of one of these contestants being murdered never crossed my mind. I can only not cry because I know she was so happy to see her baby again. RIP sweet lady
I had the privilege of working with David Watson we did a radio show together once and was fantastic gentleman to be around
RIP David J Watson
Oh my goodness Emma Jones made me weep the first time I saw her audition! She had a voice of an angel on earth I feel blessed I heard it. RIP sweet soul.
Tragic losses here, but the one that got me was Simone...just 😞..i hope she is in a better place 🙏
All so sad especially Emma Jones so young. Her audition is an inspiration may she rest in peace. Our blessed mother is now taking care of her.
Heart breaking that these beautiful, talented people have been lost to the world.
Go Emma❤ Bravery is being afraid and doing it anyway. She left a beautiful gift
Nora was adorable!!!!! Now she can rest in peace with the Lord and still singing in heaven! ❤❤
Love and peace Emma you voice so brilliant beautiful we miss you and your singing. Gone to heaven singing god bless you lovely.
Thankyou for showing us this personal insight into the lives, dreams and sad passings of these beautiful talented people...💜🙏🏼
Emma is in Paradise entertaining all there no more pain or suffering Peace to Emma!❤❤❤
Oh Emma rest in peace such a beautiful girl,sing with the angels and fly high
Oh no...my heart is with your parents. I have lost an child at 32 years old and it is painful. I know you are singing with the Angels. Rest Well precious Emma.
That was quite a shock to hear that such a young, sweet woman who was just beginning to feel accepted in the world, to feel confident and her beautiful voice heard and appreciated was taken so soon. That look on her face when she realized the audience loved her was probably the most wonderful moment in her entire life. A moment that we got to share with her. A moment that changed her. Surely she is the most beautiful Angel there ever has been in Heaven. Whenever I hear the birds singing sweetly now, I will hear her voice in that audition. If there is any meaning to her passing, I would guess that one of her life's purposes was to teach us all to look at what is inside a person, instead of what they are showing us on the outside, and perhaps to teach herself just how amazing her talent was. That audition was a gift that we didn't know was wrapped in extra special bows. RIP Emma. You touched me so beautifully. Thank you for being brave enough to get on that stage and change us.
Beautiful young lady with a beautiful voice , so sad god bless x
How sad ..I didn't know Emma Jones had died . She was so very sweet and gentle natured with a sublime voice . We have lost a gem of a singer . RIP Emma 🕊️

It's pretty obvious the old people have died no one lives forever. It's sad about the young contestants though
Oh I am so very sorry to her family for the loss of such a dear young lady,at such a young age x
Amazing talents, but I must say my favourite is Nora, to be singing like that at 96 wonderful. May they all resting in peace & still entertains there. R.I.P. BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE. What did happen to Patty from Patty & Niko?
I don’t normally watch this kind of thing but I’m so glad I did. I have depression and anxiety but this was amazing my favorite was the 2 old gentleman. Thanks for making me smile
Watch dr Eric Berg he also has a webinair every Friday 4 pm gmt :)
The older lady in the red dress was wonderful to watch and listen to. I loved listening to her sing
Oh I am utterly sad at hearing that Emma has passed away so young ... Im so happy she also got to show the world her voice ... Just beautifull Emma girl.... The lord called you to his choir ... SING FOR HIM BABY GIRL ... be you in his Grace always .. ✝️💙
Pudsey was such a beautiful dog. Cried at the end when I heard how he suffered how he said goodbye to his owner 😢 that poor dog RIP dear one
Didn’t know Emma had died, why is it the good and purest souls die young
Here in US I worked in a state hospital with people with poor mentation. One of the staff brought in a jukebox and it turned the dayroom into a swinging party. I remember laughing, singing, dancing whirling people in wheelchairs around and around as Elvis Presley sang. People love music, it's good for us all and we need more of it.
So sad about Emma ! I hope she took this memory with her, in her last moments, and she found peace ! R.I.P. EMMA ♥️🥀♥️
I'm new to commenting but I cried my eyes out since the first contestant. The way you did your video with respect and kindness I subscribe. Thank you for this heart warning video
Pudsey was such a sweet little delightful dog. So sorry he had to suffer at the end. RIP.
Rest in peace sweet Emma ❤😢🙏🕊🌹
Loved the Pensionaires! Nothing like the old musical songs. ❤❤❤❤❤
I’m back! Having watched this through now, I have to say this was a beautiful, tasteful and lovely tribute to all those stars who entertained and then left us wanting more! Thankyou.
To all the beautiful contestants MAY THEIR DEAR SOULS REST IN PEACE 🙏🙏💞💕
May she rest in eternal peace may her Family’s hearts be healed may they receive comfort from the Almighty.
Heaven has another angel singing ! God blessed you with a beautiful voice, now you are singing for him!
R.I.P. to these contestants. You are missed.
What a lovely tribute to all those contestants it was sad to find out they had passed but left behind beautiful memories for us all to enjoy & remember R.I.P.
I thought the last part of the video was disrespectful. They're showing a video about people that has lost their lives and they then show comedy. No offence but I found that really rude.
Why can’t great people like them live a long and healthy life? Life isn’t fair. Edit: Nora did…you know what I mean
Prayers are sent to all...
I love the song Rise Up, by Audra Day! ❤Nora was so awesome! 😊
And died such a horrific way 😢
God bless each and everyone of you. Never forgotten rest in peace you wonderful people
❤omg, voice of an angel....now she is 1. Sweet dreams. FLY free..RIP xxx
I hope the panel went to her funeral. May she rest peacefully
Isn't it wonderful that they had a chance to realize a dream in their lifetime, though? This show helps to raise love, compassion and healing for the whole planet ...God bless all the participants and the show itself ❤
Emma was an angel just lent to earth with that beautiful voice
How sad to lose anyone
God bless her the voice of an angel! RIP
They needed a new star in heaven. RIP Emma
Very sad, but a great tribute to their talents - Thanks to you all. RIP all and party in the spirit world.
I can't believe that Emma has died 😭💔😭💔😭 R.I.P Emma 😢 An AMAZING singer and BEAUTIFUL lady 😢😢😢😢 So sad right now
Oh im shocked 😢poor Emma she was a beautiful young lady with an amazing voice, this is very sad my heart aches for her family, RIP beautiful Angel ❤❤
🎉🎉🎉 😭😭😭 Deepest Condolences to Emma Jones family 'n friend 'n fans..!!! 🙌🙌🙌
what a marvelous collection!
RIP Emma 🥰❤️ So happy you got to show off your voice 🙏
What an inspiration Paula is. Dancing in a wheelchair. I love it
I cannot get over Emma Jones' death. I was visiting my mother in the nursing home just yesterday and went to share Emma's audition with her. Was visibly shaken to discover this beautiful and gifted soul had passes on. My 💜 goes out to her family, friends, and all those who's lives were touched by her. Whenever I need to feel better I watch her rendition of Pie Jesu, simply amazing! ❤❤❤
