This is written in honor and memory of a very special friend of nearly fifty years. Zelda Ann Karamitroes has been the best friend to my wife my family and me for many years. She introduced my wife and I. Her sparkling wit brightened her restaurant she owned and operated for forty years in Mason City, Iowa. Her many kindnesses' to her friends, her customers and her employees will never be forgotten. The infirmities of age have robbed much from her and stolen a wonderful friend. God bless our precious memories.
