Lake Havasu City, Arizona -

Della June Zeitler, known affectionately as Dell, has been a beacon of
love, faith, and strength to her family and community in Lake Havasu
City, Arizona, where she resided for 51 years. Born on June 13, 1929, in
Lansing, Michigan, Della's life was a testament to her unwavering
commitment to her loved ones and her enduring faith in God. Her vibrant
spirit, inspiring leadership, and supportive nature were evident in all
aspects of her life, from her work as a salesperson at Sears to her role
as a choir director at the Lake Havasu Baptist Church, and in her
involvement with the Lake Havasu Community Choir, Sweet Adelines and
Show Boat.

Della's life was characterized by her humble service to others. Her
witty sense of humor and unique ability to make each person feel valued
and heard made every interaction with her memorable. She was a steadfast
pillar in her community, guiding the choir with unwavering dedication
for over 20 years, and even running an ironing gig from her home during
her retirement years.

Della's love for her family was unmatched, from assisting in raising her
four sons and numerous grandchildren, to never forgetting a birthday or
anniversary. Her passion for cooking, golf, baseball, and her unyielding
faith in Jesus enriched the lives of everyone around her.

Della is survived by her sons, Laurence, Dan, Don, and David Zeitler,
her seven grandchildren, nineteen great-grandchildren, and four great-
great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents Max and
Ruth Lown, her beloved spouse Edward Zeitler, her sister Mary Richards,
and brother Robert Lown. Her legacy of love, faith, and service will
continue to inspire her family and all who had the honor of knowing her.

Family and friends are invited to attend a graveside service to
celebrate Della's life on Friday, March 14, 2025, at 1:00 PM MST in the
Lake Havasu Memorial Gardens at 1698 Deer Run Drive, Lake Havasu City,
Arizona, 86404.

We invite everyone to share their favorite memories of Della and upload
photos to her memorial page, to continue celebrating her inspiring and
impactful life. Della's love, wisdom, and warmth touched all who knew
her, and her spirit will continue to live on in our hearts and memories.
