Heather Elizabeth Zienert

It’s never an April fools joke when we announce death at the beginning of April. Heather Elizabeth Zienert was born in Southfield, Michigan to Elizabeth Bujel and Alan Joseph Zienert .There’s a mere 16 months difference between her and her brother Daniel, which she used to her full advantage including pulling his teeth. Some of us knew her by her voice, her food, her work ethic or love of Batman. Some of us were honored by being present at her real punk wives of the N.O. dinners parties or maybe she hand-delivered those fabulous meals to you personally if you weren’t able to attend. Some of us knew her as a business partner, an employee that could sell a dog toy to you even if you didn’t own a dog and some of knew her as a co worker. Some of us knew her from helping the veterans at the WWII museum and managing all the different retail stores she graced with her presence. all of us knew her as a fierce, and sometimes stubborn woman. It is hard to remember Heather as of late, she fought some battles that she kept very close to her. She is not here with us physically, but she is here within us. Each moment that passes know that even though we are not making new memories with her, we are the caretakers of her memory and will. Heather passed away on April 1, 2024 in New Orleans, Louisiana. She is survived by her loving parents Elizabeth and Alan Zienert and her dear brother Daniel Joseph Zienert. Heather majored in photography and was a creative genius. She actively supported her hometown sports teams, the Detroit Lions, Detroit Red Wings, and the New Orleans Saints. She adored our United States Veteran’s and supported them any chance she got. Heather was the ultimate saleswoman, she loved being around people. Heather planned for a food truck specializing in the great things she cooked and loved called Babcia Betty. We planned to have her a bit longer.
