Lina was a member of the Women's Auxiliary, volunteering on Fridays with the adult day care and loved going to activities at the Frazier Park Community Center; including exercise on Mondays (to which she always brought a homemade cake each week), quilting club and AARP functions.
Lina was a very inspiring, strong woman with a positive attitude all the way to the end.
Her doctor and hospice nurses were amazed that no matter how sick she was or bad she felt, she always said she was just fine.
She never stopped believing that someday she would go back home and be back working in her yard.
Lina was well loved.
It was her wish to not have any kind of services but donations may be made to the Alzheimer's Association in her memory.
Matt Enrico Zoppe
One great brave rider, Matt Enrico Zoppe was born on March 10, 1984 with an instinctive ability to get out of any kind of jam when it came to horses.
His career included bareback riding with Cheval Theater, performing at Arabian Nights Equestrian Theater and entertaining with trick riding and Roman riding at Dixie Stampede in Orlando, Florida.
He enjoyed jousting as well. Some of you will remember him competing at our spring tournaments here in Frazier Park.
You never wondered what was on Matt's mind, he always told you—good, bad or anywhere in between.
Sensitive in nature and strong of heart, Matt also had a knack for never being without something to say (usually once it came out of his mouth is was a doozy).
Matt is survived by his daughter Angelica, his three brothers, Olissio, Gino and Ermes, his sisters Melinda and Jamie, his mother Mafalda Zamperla, his father James Zoppe and his stepmother Brenda Zoppe.
Matt was at his best when performing in front of an audience.
Those who saw him work will never forget his charisma, his charm, his daring.
There is something sometimes said about a candle burning brightly.
Matt lived his life to the fullest, like one who knew the candle would not burn for long
He will be forever missed by those of us who loved him.
He touched our lives and enriched our lives like no other.
