Zenobia taught each of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren their colors, shapes and numbers and her love of reading, to be curious about the world, planet, people and spirituality. The importance of sharing and loving one another, that was the teacher in her.....the Mother we all knew and loved. She also loved Jehovah and taught all of her children and grandchildren that love, respect and devotion to Jehovah.

In parting this world she leaves her legacy in her children; Wendy, Jerome (spouse of Wendy), Michaela and Wendell Jr. Her grandchildren; Raymond, Rosetta (spouse of Raymond), Mykella, Jason (spouse of Mykella), Brittany, Damien, Anthony, Eric and Kevon.

We all take great pride in having her as our Mother and will continue to make her proud of us, love one another, teach the younger grandchildren the way we were taught.

The family thanks every kind word spoken, every card sent, and all the lovely gestures during this time. Your kindness has been our comfort, your efforts gratefully received.
