To Len and family,
My deepest sympathy to you all. Zoe was a sweet lady. She always had a smile and a greeting for those rushing through the Pastoral Center. I think of her every time I go by the front desk. She will certainly be missed, by those who knew her well and by those whose lives she touched each day wirh a kind word or an
encouraging smile. She and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Leonard:
You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. We have fond memories of Zoe, you and your children from the first year of our marriage in 1959. We watched with great admiration your involvement in the Catholic Family Movement and enjoyed our visits to your home at Mater Christi. Recently we watched home movies of your visit to our home in Clifton Park. Though our contacts were not so numerous through the years we always counted yuur friendship as a blessing. May Zoe rest in peace in the loving arms of her savior and ours
Rev. John A. Califano
Dear Lenny and Family,
Our Christian Faith assures us that in death life is not ended,
it is changed!
I just read of Zoe’s passing…
Please be assured of a remembrance in my happy thoughts and prayer. Death is never a welcomed visitor, and when it comes at a Holy/ Holiday time it stings more. Know that the promise of Emmanuel is now Zoe’s as she takes her place in the Communion of Saints.
I hold fond memories of our time together at Mater Christi Seminary.

I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. Although I did not know her, I am sure she was a wonderful person as I have known her son to be. My thoughts are with you.
