Zoe Christine Asbury

March 4, 1947 - February 25, 2016

On the morning of February 25, 2016, our mother, grandmother, sister and aunt passed peacefully after fulfilling an interesting 69 years less one week of life. She is survived by her daughter Lynn Matthews and her husband Billy Matthews, granddaughter Heather Wilson, grandson Rand Phillips, brother and sister-in-law Greg and Patti Vernon, as well as nieces Jamie Moore and Lindsey Clyde. Zoe’s passing was preceded by her parents, Loren Merle and Helen Jane Vernon, husband Joe Ellis in 1987 and husband Joe Asbury in 2007. Zoe was born in Kansas City, Missouri but she grew up in California on the high desert where she graduated from Victor Valley Senior High in 1965. She was a unique sole and a bit of a practical joker but was also giving, kind hearted, a terrific cook, great photographer and had a love for learning, which lead her to a degree in anthropology later in life. A celebration of Zoe’s life will be held at her daughter’s home in Frederick, Colorado on May 15th, 2016.

I am so sorry for your loss. It is never easy losing a loved one.. During my own times of sorrow I have found comfort in knowing that God promises to one day forever rid the earth of Death and Suffering. “God . . . will wipe all tears from their eyes, and there will be no more death, suffering, crying, or pain.”—Revelation 21:3, 4. He also promises that we will get to see our dead loved ones once again and that is of especial comfort. “There is going to be a resurrection.”—Acts 24:15,
