I remember Miss Zita-back in 1965 I attended her dancing school and she was an amazing teacher and dancer...I was only 5 years old then but have never forgotten her. I stayed in her school for about 4 years. She instilled the love of dance in me and a healthy lifestyle of good posture and elegance. I am so grateful to have known her for a short while but she had a very positive effect on my life, as young as I was at the time, I realized this lady was special and I felt lucky to be in her...

In memory of my Aunt Zita:
The thought of her brings back fond memories of my childhood. My father,Tom Mohyde, was close to her in that they shared their love of dancing and at one time a dance studio. It was a major part of my childhood from age 5 through high school. Aunt Zita always had a smile to greet us and made us feel special to be a part of her school. We grew close to all the cousins who also took dance lessons. I remember her hosting amazing parties at her house in Bridgeport...

My heart broke whenI saw you had passed away. I knew you as Miss Mohyde. I was a dance student of yours at the age of 4. I idolize you as a dancer and a teacher. I loved tap and went on to be a professional dancer. You were the best. You will be missed. Thoughts and prayers go out to your family.

Well she was Mrs C. to me as I grew up with the Carrano family at the beach since the mid 1960's. It was always special to see her as the new summer season started and she watched us over the years all become young men and woman we are today. There are so many memories of the beach families that I could type for days about but it is the wave and the hello from the cottage deck in recent years from Mrs C. (Zita) that I will fondly remember. Oh that contagious laugh too. how could I forget...

Condolences on the passing of Zita. She was a wonderful dance teacher. I have many great memories of dance class in the 80’s.
