Zelda was most happy when she was surrounded by her children, grandchildren, and family. She enjoyed reading and having bible studies. She loved going to Broken Bow, OK with her husband Lonnie and shopping with her girls. Throughout life Zelda was also a seamstress, care giver for the elderly and housewife. She loved to make people laugh and spent hours on end talking on the phone to her family and friends or watching westerns. Zelda had the most beautiful smile and is loved by so many. Now, where there is a huge hole in our heart, we will fill by sharing our love and memories of her. Until we meet again.
