Zeno and Cora were like second parents to me growing up. Zeno was a kind, gentle soul but mostly what will make me smile when I think of him is his laugh, his smile and his humor. Rest In Peace sweet man and many blessings to Michele, Danny and Terry.
Sending love and my sympathy for our loss

Zeno and Cora were the most gifted souls I have known since I was 12. I have never know a kinder man. I still remember when they lived on the farm. There was always laughter. Thank you Zeno for the memories.
