To the family, Although I haven’t seen your mother in years, I have fond memories of her from frequently being in your warm home. A great accomplishment of hers is raising some of my favorite people to be around. I regret that I can’t be there but I am thinking of you. Alissa

She was a true delight and so full of joy and wit. Our prayers are with you (and your famiily) with your loss—-but it is truly Heaven’s Gain. In Christian Love, Pastor Bill and Becki Stout
Karen…so very sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family and please send my love along to Uncle Joe Dugan.
I have to share this story with you. I took care of your mom in the hospital one day and we were talking about the times when us youngsters would be down in the wreckroom talking or hanging out with newly acquired boyfriends or dates. Your mom said, “You kids thought you were being so secretive. Bet you didn’t know that I could hear everything through the registers?” And she just laughed and laughed! Your mom definitely had a funny side. She’ll be missed. Toni
Karen and family, So sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Cindi Cooper Stichler
Debbie and family, please accept my sincere and deepest sympathies on the passing of your mom. I always remembered her as a lovely lady, who always wore a smile. I hope you have many great memories to comfort you.
To all you “young” Zapors, our thoughts and prayers are with you. Your Mom was a great gal and full of fun. She brought so much joy to those around her. It is so difficult at this time, but remember the good times you all had together. Those are the memories that count. We love you and we are here for you if you need us.
Karen, My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Tanya
