Those who know Emilie know the only things she loves more than her Hummels are her kitty cats.

Emilie went to rest with the Lord on
March 27th 2006.
 
 
 
Update 11-12-2002
Today, less than five month after they had been stripped from her by corrupt lawyers and a Family Court Judge who had to resign the bench because of his adulterous affair with his court clerk,  Emilie had a New Hearing
and had most all of her Rights Re-instated.
In light of this, many of the pages on this site have been deleted. Should anyone desire or need copies of legal papers or Emilie's letters feel free to E-mail me for them.
 
 
 
Let this site be not a memorial to her but
a wake up call to everyone over the age of 18.

Although Emilie did have a will that specifically listed her final requests, her daughter is still fighting her mother's wishes and holding up the funds necessary to pay for Emilie's funeral as Emilie desired and spelled out in her will.

This website is for the expediant and economical exchange of information between myself, Paul W. Hartnagel, attorneys, friends, family members, and others truly representing the interests and desires of Emilie Laura Phillips Hartnagel  (Including Winter Haven Police Department, Polk County Probate Court and Polk County Department of Child and Family Protective Services Personnel) .
 
Because some of the factual information presented here is not pretty, (it is in fact pretty upsetting), it would be easy to misunderstand and mis-judge the  purpose of this web site.
 
 
This is NOT a "Hate Site" 
I DO NOT hate my sister, I feel sorry for her. 
I DO HATE the anguish and heartache she is putting our mother through by not listening to, respecting, and obeying her Mother's wishes,  but Jesus taught us to "Hate the Sin, but Love the Sinner ".  Nothing on this site is meant to intentionally hurt or embarrass Kathy, or Mom, but only to serve as information and background to help those needing that information to make informed intelligent decisions regarding Emilie Hartnagel based on Emilie's own documented feelings, wishes, and desires. The tone of distain for the choices Kathy has made in her life is Emilie's not mine. Regarding some issues I do agree with Mom, on others I feel that Kathy has the right to choose what she wants. In the same light I feel that Emilie has the right to choose what she wants too.  I just hope that those who now have to decide "what is best for her (Emilie)" will take into consideration what her wishes and desires have been for years. Should anyone find any information here that is not factually correct, please send me correcting information with the documentation to prove it, and I will gladly and expeditiously make any necessary changes.  
 
For those of you who may feel this is nothing more than airing dirty family laundry, I agree. I wish it were not necessary. However, I do have Emilie's permission to share and make public, for the sake of getting her wishes and desires known to those that are deciding how she will spend her last days on this earth, what up to now has been kept confidential. When asked how she felt about me making public knowledge, personal letters and things she previously told me to keep secret, she told me to do whatever it takes to make it possible for her to come home and live with us in New York.
 
 

On March 8th, 2002 Kathy Ann Hartnagel->Spratt->Gannon->Brown->Who's Next?? sent me an E-mail saying we needed to discuss our mother's future. This was the set up to the sucker punch. In the following weeks electronic correspondence (she hides behind a telephone answering machine that picks up after only two rings) she learned I was planning on leaving New York Easter Sunday evening 3/31/2002 to drive down to Florida and help Mother. I believe Kathy knowing this information hurried to get an Emergency Guardianship over Emilie on Thursday March 28th, but had her attorney wait five days to put the legal papers in the mail to me on Monday April 1st so there would be no chance of me getting them before I was scheduled to leave.  The Lord works in mysterious ways and I was detained in leaving as scheduled, and on Thursday morning April 4th, 2002 I received the legal papers saying Kathy had been granted a temporary "Emergency Guardianship" and was petitioning the court to have Mother declared "Loony-Tunes" and put Kathy in charge of all of Emilie's decision making and finances. This is exactly what Emilie DID NOTwant. For years she has been telling friends that if ever she needed one of her kids to take care of her, she wanted Paul NOT Kathy. It is because Kathy does NOT listen to, nor respect her mother's wishes that Emilie made her will out in October of 1997 naming Paul as executor, and made her funeral arrangements in July of 2000 again naming Paul to be in charge.  
This legal move to have Emilie committed is exactly what Paul predicted was going to happen, the first chance Kathy got, when Kathy moved to Florida several years earlier!!  You don't need to have a Masters Degree to see some things coming as clear as crystal!

On Sunday April 7th, after three days of phone calls, faxes,  and other attempts to get my mother copies of the legal papers that Kathy had kept from her, Mom called me in tears of rage and frustration saying Kathy had removed from the house all of Mom's important papers (bank statements, financial documents, etc.) Mom found this out when she was putting away copies of her 2001 Income tax return. She subsequently called the Winter Haven Police to report a robbery. Police Officer Voelkner responded and I spoke with him on the phone and tried to explain to him something I myself was not at the time (nor am I yet) fully understanding.
 
Mom's appointed attorney had yet to contact her to read the documents or explain to Emilie what was going on. This person  had been hand delivered the papers on Monday April 1st but had a huge case load and a broken arm on top of things and was not able to get to Mom to explain things yet.
 
The $64,000.00 Question?? 
 
 If this woman was in such dire danger of falling and hurting herself, leaving  pots on the stove and burning down the house, living in unsanitary putrid squalor (as claimed in Kathy's petition for Emergency Guardianship) ... then why was the first act of someone "trying to help her" to grab and remove all the important financial documents from the domicile and leave the woman there all alone from Thursday March 28th till Sunday April 7th (almost two weeks)?? Why wasn't the first act done with this Necessary Emergency Court Appointed High and Mighty Power to remove the endangered person from the dangerous situation??????

On Monday April 8th I flew down to see what I could do to help Mother.  On Tuesday April 9th, Mother called her Auto Insurance Agent to have the coverage put on her car so I could drive her around and also use her car myself. Whomever Kathy's "Spy in the Park" is, Kathy was notified within minutes of the car moving and she left this message on Mother's answering machine.
