I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to the Gonzales family. Zenaida was a very good friend of my mother Rosemary Rios-Luera and god-mother to two of my sisters. My mom shared some really funny and sweet stories about their friendship while growing up. Zenaida was always a very friendly and loving woman. I know she enjoyed bowling, and going on trips and of course doing a little gambling and would win a jackpot!! Dear Zenaida, thank you for being a good friend to my mother, she loves you and will miss you dearly! God bless and prayers to the Gonzales family. With a heavy heart, Renee Espino (Rosemary's #3 daughter)
