Ms Z,
I will miss the talks we had and the great advice you would give me. I am truly honored and blessed to have been a part of your life. You will be missed by many. I am comforted in knowing that you are finally at peace and smiling down on all of us your family and friends. Pavi and Ahanti, I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me...Phil 4:13

Dear Ms Young: I never got a chance to go to your memorial service, but I did want you to know that you were an important person to me. You made me feel loved and for that I am forever grateful. You brought two of my best friends into this world. You will be missed more than words can express. I wish I could be with your children during this time, but I know that they know I am there in spirit. I love you Zula. You made me a better person from knowing you. I will think of you and be running the LA marathon in your honor. You will be painfully missed...but when it gets sad, I will think of all that you've done for me and smile. <3

Zula girl, we met in our teen years, lived together in our young adult years, drifted away from each other & re- united in our mature years. You were there for me after i had my little "bout" of illness; you called me every day, or i'd call you. Z, you were always such a good listener to all my ups & downs; we laughed together so many days, & it just made me feel good talking to you, knowing our time was running short. I'll always regret not being the special frind to you that you were to me....I'LL MISS YOU' LIL SISTER~~~

We became friends first, but that wasn't enough. We then became "sisters", & that's whats up! We grew up, went our own seperate ways, but nothing could separate our "sister-ship". I loved you then, & i'll love you always, ZULA M. YOUNG. We became closer towards the end of the road & i'll miss you dearly...AND ALWAYS' SIS!

Zula, we grew up together, on the same block,30+ yrs later we start working together, we aways came looking for each other when it was break time, I'm going to miss those days, making you laugh, you telling me how crazy I was. You will be missed and never forgotten.

Sister, we've been there through life's sorrow and pain
But together we have always endured the strain
We've argued and bickered and made each other mad
But if you weren't my sister, life would be so sad
We've cried till we laughed and laughed till we cried
Sometimes for no reason we didn't even know why
When we're not together our bond is just as strong
Because we are sisters we know when something is wrong
So whether we are together or we are far apart
Zula, you're my sister, my friend and forever in my heart.

Love you Sissy,

Tabitha~
