Zena and I were best of friends in school. She and I were the last of our classmates from the class of 1937. She and I would write and talk to each other on the phone. I remember going to her house in Muncie and meeting other ladies from our class. I always admired her small dainty hands. I always thought they were so pretty. I am really sorry for your loss of such a wonderful lady.

Recalling happy memories of Zena and her parents & own family over the the past 60 years, initially through my parents and right up to this year when we chatted over the internet. Happy times when she came to stay with us in Bournemouth and when we last met in Rome. God Bless You Zena
