Zoe was one of a kind; a fearless, determined and strong-willed young lady who loved life and lived each day to the fullest. She was a talented dancer and also excelled in gymnastics. She was an accomplished diver, diving for the New Bremen Barracudas Dive team for many years.

She also had a passion for hula-hoop dancing and could choreograph a routine ready for performance in just minutes. She enjoyed giving her performances and won awards for her artistry at local events and as far away as Myrtle Beach.

Zoe would have been a junior at New Bremen High School where she was involved in the art and music programs. She was a member of the Church of the Holy Redeemer in New Bremen where she was a server for Mass. She had recently started working at Behm's Landing as a hostess.
