So sorry for your loss. I am her sister Deloris's granddaughter and when I started doing genealogy on the Kennedy side Zola was so generous sharing the info she had. Last year when I visited I was happy to give her printouts of some newspaper articles from when she was a child, the best one was a letter to Santa when she was five.

Linda Curtis left a message on July 12, 2020:
I was so sorry to hear of Zola’s passing. She was such a sweet lady who always made time to sit down and have a chat. I always enjoyed coming by to visit Dave and Zola when in Wisconsin to see my family because I always felt of them as family. I remember one conversation we were having about food and Zola said “Dave lives to eat and I eat to live!” She always made me smile. I know you will miss her terribly but will have comfort knowing that she is with her Heavenly Father. I pray that his comforting arms will wrap around you during this difficult time. Love, Linda Stimpson Curtis

Dear David, My sympathy to you and your family. I have many fond memories of Zola and our years at Minnesota Bible College. We graduated together and did many activities as a group.
