  • Notes 
    • Zada was Charley's darling for the few years that he lived after their marriage. (He was a widower with no children.) He bought Zada a new car which she learned to drive at a driver's school and they enjoyed life going fishing at "The Little Bridge" at New Smyrna Beach and visiting relatives.

      Aunt Zada symbolizes the hard working, little money, proudness, fidelity, and courteousness of most of our old timers. She worked in the fields; scrimped in the kitchen; made every relative "feel at home"; saw her husband die of cancer; nursed her bedridden father-in-law; married a second time; learned to drive a car when well past middle-age; lost a beloved great grandchild to brain tumor; turned to her other great grandchildren for comfort; never drank, smoked, or cursed; still scrappy--if you think-that I admire this little 86 year-old bundle of energy--then you're right!
