My aunt always would bring me things on christmas like dinner and desserts. Which were always the best things. When she made something new it always came out great I dont think she can mess anything up in the kitchen. My aunt left this earth probably a sad person. Christmas for us was anytime of the year because big dinners and presents were given often throughout. She taught me what family values were without me realizing it and the gift of having a big male cousin to look up to. People say I am a lot like my aunt Zoe cos I don't need no man lmao! I guess you would have to know Zoe to understand me lol.
As I sat here today, the name of Zoe Zotto came to me. My Dad was stationed at Sigonella Sicily from 1960 to 1963. Zoe lived in town (Catania). She was in my school class on base. I remember going to her house to play and eat dinner. My fondest memory was when our entire class went to stomp grapes for the Cinzano winery, where we took off our shoes and stomped! Zoe always had a great smile. I'm sorry for your loss. Bruce Spalding.
I worked with Zoe many years ago in L&D. I am saddened to hear of her passing. She was a lovely person. My condolences to the family.

Meagan, Marisa, and Family -
Lou and I were saddened to learn of your mom's passing. She was such a vibrant and caring individual with a huge heart and left her mark wherever she went. Take comfort in knowing that she is reunited with Danny and smiling down on all of you. The world will be a little darker without Zoe's presence but maybe we can all do our part by striving to live our lives like Zoe did with compassion and grace.

my heartfelt condolences on your loss, i was fortune enough to get to know Zoe over the years from working at a bakery that she regularly frequented downtown,my day was always brightened by her visits and her big smile, and happy attitude was infectious,She was always curious as to how things were going in our/my life and would tell us about work and what her children were up to and how proud she was , she would bring me birthday and Christmas cards, her thoughtfulness for others knew no bounds .Long after i stopped working there i would run into her or my sister would and relay a message to say hi and ask how i was, she was a always so caring and a wonderful person i will miss her very much-Aaron
I had the honor and privilege of working with Zoe at St. Joe's for two years. What a spitfire! Her larger-than-life personality shined everywhere she went, and she brought SO much joy and comfort to staff and patients. Zoe, you will surely be missed, but I will make sure to send a donation to Planned Parenthood so that your caring, loving spirit will continue to impact many lives.
