BARTLESVILLE, WASHINGTON CO, OK
(permission granted)
Emily Christian Potts, age 37 and resident of
Bartlesville, Oklahoma, passed away on Wednesday,
June 22, 2016, in Jane Phillips Medical Center.
Emily was born on March 6, 1979. She was the
daughter of Richard Cardenas and Rebecca Sue (Brown)
Cardenas. She received her early education in
Houston where she graduated from St. Agnes Academy.
Emily and Harry Potts were united in marriage on
June 23, 2001 in St. Mary Catholic Church in College
Station, Texas. They lived in College Station for
six years. She graduated from the
Texas A&M University with a Bachelor of Arts in
2003. They resided in Houston for two years while
Harry was finishing his degree, before moving to
Bartlesville in 2005. They have continued to make
their home here since that time.
Emily was a Master Photographer, having apprenticed
under Doug Box Photography from 2001-2003 and from
2003-2005, she did work for Studio 1 to 1. She was
the owner of Emily Potts Photography. In
Bartlesville, Emily was well-known for her expertise
in the photography field. She developed a devoted
following and there were those who would not think
of anyone else photographing their family or
children.
Emily was an active member of St. John Before the
Latin Gate Catholic Church, Bartlesville. She taught
(volunteer) Catholic Religious Education (CRE); and
was active in the Women's Faith Group. Other
memberships included Professional Photographs of
America (PPA); and Wedding and Portrait
Photographers, International (WPPI). She enjoyed
gardening, wine and she dreamed of owning land.
However, she enjoyed, more than anything else, time
spent with her family.
Survivors include her husband, Harry, son Richard,
and two foster children; mother, Rebecca Cardenas of
Houston; brothers, Evan and Eliot Cardenas, both of
Houston.
She was preceded in death by her father, Rick
Cardenas.
