Oh, Steffi and family, I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Zola was a class act and a brilliant and kind man. He was always a delight to speak with, and he was very good-natured. I will never forget the graciousness he showed when I flooded your condo! Please know our prayers are with all of you for strength. Love from Rebecca, your neighbor at Beachplace

Zola was the greatest father in law a son in law could ask for. Loving, warm, interested but never interfering. I loved him and will miss his presence. He was a good man, a true mensch. Rest in peace Grandpa. Xoxoxo.
