Zola was a native and had lived most of her life in Scott County. She had also lived in Meridian, Jackson, New York and Houston, Texas in earlier years. She was a member of Harperville Baptist Church and always enjoyed her Sunday School Class.
Zola loved to travel and play bridge, even reaching the bridge status of Diamond Master. She had the opportunity to see many places around the world which also included taking family members and friends. Zola had a genuine love for people, especially for her family, church family and friends, always taking an interest in them, having a listening ear and being willing to invest in their lives. She also loved the companionship of her dog, “Little Man”, which gave her much enjoyment.
Zola will be missed by many, but her passion for living, her quick wit, her spirit of will and determination
against all odds, and her generous giving will live forever in the hearts of many that she touched. She lived in Grace and died in Grace even to her final days at Madden Lighthouse-where they came to love her so much. The family would like to thank the staff of Madden Lighthouse for their loving care and tenderness. They would also like to thank her family, church family and friends for the warm friendship and support that she received. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Harperville Baptist Church.
“My flesh and my heart may fail, But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26
