My Condolences to Zella's family. I remember her smiling face from our time as medical students. I have no recollection of any negative comments passing her lips in the four years we were at SUNY. RIP Zella...gone too soon.

David, Derek, and Danielle,

We were shocked to hear the news of Zella's passing. Our hearts go out to you at this time of terrible loss. We have so many fond memories of Zella during her radiology residency with "her brother" John. There were so many laughs shared those many years. Then the joy of watching the children come along. How proud she was of you. She was an extraordinary person who will be truly missed.

In thought and prayer,
Bobbi and John Wasenko

I send my deepest condolence to the family of Dr. Zella Small. May she rest in peace, and may your hearts be lifted to know what an inspiration she was to me during medical school. She "turned me on" to ultrasound imaging, and I knew radiology was for me. She is a very special memory of SUNY Upstate, and I am so glad our paths crossed. Dr. S Granberry '84

Rissa and I send our deepest sympathies to Zella's family. I have known Zella since 1977 and wanted to add my favorite memory of Zella. It is probably not widely known or remembered, but Zella was a surgery resident at Upstate for three years before she changed over to radiology. She spent several months on our Pediatric Surgery service and was arguably among the best residents we have ever had. We were making inquiries across the country to get Zella into a Pediatric Surgery Fellowship and...

To the Small and Kennedy family, my heart goes out to you and mom Small may god bless all of you.
