Emily (pictured above) attended The Drexel University and served as vice president of the school’s Zeta chapter, she was honored by the school after the Gamma Sigma Sigma chapter posted a message on the sorority’s Facebook page mourning Emily’s death.
While her mother, 58-year-old Yvonne Ciarlo Selke was a longtime and highly regarded employee of Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. in Washington. According to the AP Yvonne worked on the company’s contract with the National Geospaital-Intelligence Agency in the Pentagon.
