Zed El Obituary

Zed El was a wonderful warm gentleman. He did a couple of projects for us and his work was excellent. I was proud to recommend him to my clients and friends. God Bless his family.

I was so sorry to hear about Zed. He was a fine man and a great friend back in my North Forsyth days and was loved by all who knew him. His passing is a loss for everyone.

To all of Zed's Family,
We feel your pain during this difficult time. The true loss is to all of us, for Zed was an inspiration to we who run small service businesses, most especially small family businesses. We have hired many contractors over the years, and nobody has ever been more enjoyable to work with and be around, whether discussing the politics of the day, family or customer stories or sports. Zed bid on his first job with us in 2004, and did painting jobs on three houses for us. We didn't call anyone else for a price, because we knew Zed would be reasonable, reliable and honest. He was just here in March, and I have an indelible image of him up on the roof staining an addition to our "new to us" house, and painting the inside of the garage.
Zed will be sorely missed by Rob and Mary Ann Peffer, and our son-in-law, Sammy Black.

My heart goes out to Gail and the rest of Zed's family. I just found out today and was deeply sadden. Zed and I worked at Blossoms for a while together and became close friends before he started Inside 4 Walls. Zed allowed me to help him with Inside 4 Walls in which are bond became stronger. Zed and I became like brothers, which I confided some of my deepest feelings and thoughts to. Zed was a great man, as well as friend. May the purity of his heart and the warmth of his personality last with us forever. My condolences goes out to the family.

Zed instantly made friends. His big smile and easy going laugh will not be forgotten. El family and Gail, Sean, Will & Riley I am so sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you. Zed was truly a special person who made a big impact on everyone he met. An amazing person - with an amazing legacy.

I am truly moved by all of the people who loved and befriended my brother. Gail, thank you for loving him for all that he was...the sweet and the sour. Thank you for believing in him, that means the world to me. To Will, Sean and Riley, thank you for opening your hearts and minds to my brother. To Zet, say hello to "Date" :0)

Gail, you probably don't remember us but my wife Melissa and I met you and Zed about 3 years ago when I contracted Zed's company to do some painting at our last house as we prepared to put it on the market. You and Zed struck us both as such positive & bright people and it was obvious you were very happy together and having fun running the business together. We very very saddened to hear the news of Zed's passing. There are very few people who you meet and like and feel comfortable with right away and Zed was one of them. He was a good man...honest, sincere, good sense of humor,and was fun to talk football with.

In all this sadness, we hope that you are comforted by the fact that he is at peace forever in paradise with the Lord and will watch over you and your children until the day you are all united. God Bless you and your family.

I am so deeply concerned for the family and want you to know my prayers go out to each of you. I too am a relative/cousin and will miss Zed. I pray that God will comfort you and that you will allow him to comfort you as you accept this transition of life. We all have to meet our maker someday, and he knows all and is control of all. Let's commit to being ready, for our time could be next. Remember John 3:16. Stay encouraged and know that my love and prayers are with you. Zed will be missed, but never forgotten. We Love You El Family !- Cousin Sebrina & Keyera

Neighbors,

Friends are like angels set upon this earth to guide us through thick and thin. Zed was one of these angels who stood beside you throughout the years never asking for anything in return. He will be sadly missed, but his gestures of caring, goodwill, and kindness will be part of your spirit now as you go forward in your life. My deepest sympathy for your loss.

Peace and Blessing to you all,
