In Loving Memory ~

Nonie passed away peacefully on December 3, 2024 at the age of 90. She was married to her husband Richard Zala, CD, for 49 years before he passed in 2005. Her two sons Gregory (Janet) of Toronto and Donnie of Comox have very loving memories of her.

Nonie was very active in the Comox Valley Community since 1970. She played bridge, was active in knitting groups and was an active member in the Catholic Women's League for many years. She loved people, was extremely social, developed many great friends in the Comox Valley and will be missed by all, including her little dog Willa.

Nonie, as per her wish, will rest beside her husband at the Mission Hill cemetery.

Arrangements for a ceremonial mass and small celebration of life for her will be made sometime in 2025. In lieu of flowers, Nonie would have appreciated donations to any of the following:

1. Christ the King, Catholic Women's League, Courtenay

2. Comox Valley Regional Hospital

3. Canadian Cancer Society

4. Canadian Parkinson Society

5. Canadian Armed Forces Museum, CFB, Comox
