Two weeks late, but a no less sincere condolence to the family of Pat Zera.   You do not know me, although she would have recognized me as one of her many customers at the credit union over the years.    She was a 'to the point' kind of lady, but always accommodating and caring, especially when financial adjustments were needed.    I knew she had retired and even ran into her at a store once and we chatted a few minutes.   She looked good, but I am so sorry to see that she did not get to enjoy very many years of her retirement.     Again I send my sympathy to the family with fond memories of having known Pat professionally.

Frank, My deepest condolences to you at this time. My thoughts and prayers with you also.

 God`s Will Be done.

Dear Frank and Family,
  My Mom and Dad, Patsy's Aunt Annie and Uncle Andy, were very proud of their niece. I can remember how happy my Dad was when Pat asked him to teach her to drive her brother Leo's standard Ford. Leo was in the Navy at the time. When Pat worked at Woolworth's in Scranton,my Mom was so proud when she would see her or talk to her boss Angelo, who said Pat was the BEST employee. I was young at the time, but I always remember Pat giving me some sort of treat to make me feel special - all good memories. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Frank, Debbie, Steve and family:  
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. I worked with "PT" at the credit union and she was one of the nicest people I've worked with,  she always had a smile on her face as she looked over her glasses at you! She will be missed.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy on the passing of "PT".

Pat brought a ray of sunshine to our neighborhood that we will miss. We feel lucky to have known such a warm, wonderful person. She blessed us with her charm and energy,

PAT IS MY SISTER AND SHE MEANT EVERYTHING TO ME. I FIND IT VERY HARD TO COPE WITH THE THOUGHTS OF NEVER SEEING OR TALKING TO HER EVERYDAY. SHE WILL FOREVER LIVE WITHIN MY HEART AND SOUL THROUGH THE REST OF MY LIFE. GOD BLESS THE WONDERFUL FAMILY SHE HAS TOO. THEY WERE WITH HER EVERY STEP OF THE WAY.

Frank, Debbie, Steve and family,  I am so sorry for your loss.  You are in my prayers, may all you good times be a comfort in the days ahead.  Working with "PT" at the credit union all those years was always a pleasure.

Frank, Steven and Debbie - I can't possibly express how distressed I am.  Pat was a wonderful friend and one of the nicest people I have ever known.  It is hard to imagine a world without her in it.  But, at least I am comforted to know that she is in heaven where there is no pain or sorrow. Pat was such a trooper and kept such a positive attitude even as she was getting weaker. 

I know how much you are grieving.  You are all in my prayers and thoughts.

Norman and I will both miss her terribly.

Frank - we are so sorry to hear of Pat's passing. In fact, I was shocked - haven't been in touch for months and the last time we were, Pat was in remission.  She was a wonderful person and I'm sure you will miss her terribly - Wish we still lived down the street to give our support.  You are in our thoughts as well as your whole family.

Pat Zera helped me with a Henrico County Credit Union Loan a long time ago.  I was privileged to remember her son, Steve, from Godwin.  He was such a gentleman.  Clay and Judy Vaughan love the Zeras and that makes Pat and Frank special to me.

Pat would want everyone to stay strong and remember the good times.  She is at peace now....and we all have to go on that same journey when it is our time.

God bless your family.  May He comfort you in your grief.  But may He also bless you with the happy, precious memories of his child, Pat, who lived life so wonderfully.

Frank, Steve and Debbie, I am so sorry for your loss.  Pat was a dear person and I always enjoyed talking to her when we would see each other at church. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time.  With sincerest sympathy.

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Zera while working as a care partner on CCH2.  She was the sweetest lady and had such a amazing spirit.  I will miss her tremendously and I feel so blessed to have gotten to know her even for a short period of time.
I want to extend my deepest condolences to Frank, Debby, Steve and the entire family.
