Tenika Latrice Zuber, 18, born September 20, 1985 in Flagstaff, AZ, passed away October 29, 2003 in Glendale, AZ.

She was a senior at Sunrise Mountain High School. Tenika was a striking young lady that when she walked into the room, everyone just stopped to look at her because she just seemed to light everything up!

Tenika was talented in so many ways. She loved to make things with her hands-scrapbooking, drawing, and ceramics. Tenika could ride a four-wheel motorcycle, and wanted to be on a race team. She had gotten her scuba diving lessons and was planning on her open water certification when we planned a trip to Hawaii.

Tenika also has a wonderful way of putting things into words and writing that was beyond her years!! She always would try to see the brighter side of everyone and everything. I sit here and try to sum up everything about her, and there's just so much I'll put on paper that no one will even understand or know unless you knew her and loved her as I do!

Tenika is survived by her mother, Serena Ann KIRKWOOD; stepfather, Robert Lee KIRKWOOD; father, Ronald Paul ZUBER; sister, Ailie Marie KIRKWOOD; brother, Keafer Cole ZUBER; grandparents, Julia PASSALACQUE; Tom & Joyce ZUBER; great-grandparents, Margaret Zuber, June NANCARROW; uncles, Senon MAESTAS, Adrian Maestas, Shannon PASSALACQUE, Jose BENITEZ, and John ZUBER; aunts, Regina DAVENPORT, Jeri GALLOWAY.

Contributions can be made to the Tenika ZUBER/Serena KIRKWOOD Memorial Fund at any Compass Bank. My Pumpkin Pie came into this world very fast, and she leaves even faster! She will be missed beyond imagination! Loving you now & forever, Mom & Family.
