Zebulon Doyle Alley

Zeb will always be remembered as the extreme veterans advocate. Miss you Zeb.

I miss my best bud so much that I haven't baked his favorite oatmeal cookies or fudge. RIP my best friend!

I write this note with a heavy heart but with great affection. My mother Frances Hunt Hall is now entirely debilitated by Advanced Alzheimer's Disease or she would be writing this to Zeb's family with great affection and appreciation for the love and support Mr. Alley gave to her parents after the loss of their beloved son Lawrence Hunt in Korea. His loss was staggering blow not only to my grandparents but my mother as well. Mr Alley was a joy to know and an invaluable force for good not...

I called Mr. Alley by pure happenstance one evening when I was work on the phone-a-thon for ORMA. Mr Alley and I had a very fun and interesting conversation until I mentioned my home town of Pleasant Garden, NC. At that point Mr. Alley stopped the conversation and asked me where I lived in conjunction to the old Ingersoll-Rand railroad stop. I informed him I lived down Nazarene Church Rd. which was formerly known as Wright Road, parallel to the majority of my family on Hunt Road. Mr....

What an incredibly well lived life. Rest in peace Zeb.

Zeb was a dear friend of mine, a mentor, a great Tarheel, and most of all, a wonderful human being. I will truly miss his friendship, his stories, his humor and his grace. Our state has indeed lost a treasure. May his family find solace and comfort in the love shown by so many for Zeb at this most difficult time. My prayers are with you.

Zeb was the image of dignity and integrity. North Carolina has lost an outstanding statesman. May God bless and keep Zeb's family at this difficult time. RIP Zeb.

I had the high honor of serving in the North Carolina Senate with Zeb in 1971-72. He was a mentor to me then even though we were in different parties and he was a mentor later as the most effective lobbyist in NC. The word "integrity" comes to mind, among other adjectives, when I think of Zeb. Of course, he was a master story teller and always had time to listen, to talk, and to counsel. I miss him already!
