My sincere and heartfelt sympathies are extended to Zewdi's family.

One thing that so many people remember about Zewdi was her smile. She had an infectious smile and laugh that could be felt and shared by those around her.
Zewdi was a godly woman and did not waste her energy on idle gossip but used it to encourage her friends. Even while she was suffering with the horrible cancer she was there for her friends in their time of need.

One of my favorite quotes is by Charles Spurgeon and I believe it describes Zewdi.

“A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.”

I will miss Zewdi, miss her smile, miss her laugh and her friendship but I will never forget her. I rejoice in knowing she is in heaven with her Savior and I will see her again. And we will laugh again.

My deepest condolences are with Zewdi's family. I remember my days at SunTrust and how just her warm spirit and joyful presences made my day on those days when I really didn't feel like being bothered. She was ALWAYS very sweet to me and she will be greatly missed.

To all of Zewdi's loved ones, please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss. I know she was much loved by you all and she certainly loved you.

Zewdi was truly a remarkable person in my eyes. She was always more concerned about others than herself, even when she was not feeling well. She always had a smile for you and I looked forward daily to seeing and talking with her.

Zewdi will be sorely missed in the Cash Services Dept., but because of who she was, she will be missed by so many more in this world than that.
I prayed many nights for Zewdi's recovery but I also prayed that she would not suffer. I know she is not suffering anymore and has gone home to heaven. Zewdi had a great belief in God, and if anyone from this earth belongs in heaven, she surely does.

After we lose someone so dear to us, the best thing we can do is to always keep their memory alive. While I only knew Zewdi for a short time in her life, I will never forget her. She will be always be a part of me and I am a better person for having known her.

Zewdi, my Dearest friend, my Sister, my Gift

Heavenly Father I thank you for allowing Zewdi into our lives to bless, teach and show us by example in the way she lived her life, lessons of endurance, perseverance, strength, commitment, tradition, faith and most important the love of God, Family and Friends.

Praise God for blessing us with Zewdi

To the Adal Haile Family

At this moment it is difficult to put into words. Just know that, I am praying that each of you are at peace and is comforted in the love of God. May the cherished moments each of you shared bound by love, help you to support and strengthen each other through this difficult time.

I pray, Yahweh Shalom will comfort, strengthen and give you peace that surpasses all understanding. God is a great and worthy to be praised! Yahweh Shammah already knows and understands all that you are feeling; take refuge in the shadow of his wings (PS 57:1).

Respectfully,
Joan Archer Sadler and Family

I used to work with Zewdi many years ago. She was a lovely person. I was so sad to hear of her struggles. I have not seen her in years but the fact that I can clearly see her smiling face even after all of these years proves how special she was. My deepest sympathies go out to her family. I am truly sorry for your loss.

Dear Zewdi and family:
We have worked together for 26 years. At the hospital, our children were reminiscing the things they have done together through all the years at the bank it was a joy to see they also cherished those memories. Memories I will hold so dearly forever and ever. We talked about all the changes we have gone through and we had a life time of memories together. Zewdi I love you and will miss you so much here on earth, but forever we will in talk in prayer. Until I see you again, may Heaven bring you the comfort you deserve. As you are truly and Angel

Zewdi and I worked together at Suntrust she was truly a special person; and I know she will be missed by all who knew her. To encourage you: Let not your hearts be troubled ye believe in God also believe in me.
