Dear Fans,
Today we celebrate what would have been our filly’s first birthday by remembering the joy that she brought to the world. We created a memorial page for Z Princess with a collection of images, videos and memories from those who loved her.
This page will always be here on Zenyatta.com in celebration of her life.
With love,
Team Z

What can I say that hasn’t been said already, and more eloquently. This is such a beautiful tribute in memory of our lovely little ZPrincess. We will always remember this sweet girl — she captivated us with her beauty, charm, friendliness and endearing feistiness. Sincere gratitude to Ann and Jerry Moss, and to all of Team Z & Lane’s End, as well as, boundless love and admiration.
Warm Hugs and Lots of Love, always

Thank you for this. Those vids were lovely, especially the second one which had me bawling. She was such a charmer.
Ashton
Thank you for this beautiful memorial. I am not good with words so I’ll repost the video and lyrics I did for her to speak for me. Love and blessings to all.
“ON THE WINGS OF A BUTTERFLY”
As I was walking deep in sorrow thinking about the times we shared
A butterfly danced round me – a white cloud in the evening air
And I knew that your soul was finally home and free
But it felt like a blessing, a message from you to me
Now you can fly, now you can soar
So high above this world where troubles are no more
The time has come to say goodbye
And let your soul go to heaven on the wings of a butterfly
Just a few days after, they called us to a church to pray
Loved ones gathered round you to bless and send you on your way
And as I got up to speak it suddenly caught my eye
White wings against the window, a beautiful butterfly
Now you can fly, now you can soar
So high above this world where troubles are no more
This love of ours will never die
So let your soul go to heaven on the wings of a butterfly
One day we’ll meet again in heaven and we’ll fly like that butterfly ………………………………….

Like so many have already said, watched these beautiful videos through tears. I truly believe the Princess would have been the best of Queen Z’s offspring. Thanks to the Mosses and Zenyatta.com for sharing these images with us on what would have been her birthday.

Tears of joy and sorrow fell as I read Ann’s words, watched the video, and slowly relished each image of Z Princess. Thank you Ann, Jerry, and Team Z for sharing all of these precious images with us.
In the short time we were privileged to have her on Earth, Z Princess had that same rare quality that Zenyatta has…a being as bright and beautiful on the inside as on the outside.
Someone whose presence here makes your life better, more full of joy.
Happy Birthday in heaven, sweet Princess ! You will never be forgotten and many good deeds will be done in memory of you.

The new photos and video are lovely and also spark tears.
It is nice to see in print Team Z acknowledging the hawk so many of us saw in her Blaze…they wrote “From the falcon shaped blaze that graced her forehead…”
This is all so bittersweet.

Oh Ann, I am so sorry for her humans! Makes us sad and we didn’t even really know her. Thank you so much for sharing the videos – they make me smile and cry at the same time.

Dear Team Z and Lanes End-
Thank you for this joyous and poignant memorial of our little princess and our great Queen. It must be heartbreaking for you to put it together for the fans, and from the bottom of my heart, I thank you.
Also, I want to thank you for the video of ZPrincess with the wonderful medley of Over the Rainbow/Wonderful World sung by the incomparable Israel Kamakawiwo’ole- another start taken too soon. Aloha ZPrincess and Israel- I hope you are both chasing butterflies and rainbows across that Bridge.

Where the Buffalo roam…..still….Hot Springs Arkansas. …
Bonnie and Clyde still uncaptured….but no one chasing them…authorities asking that any sightings be reported….
Janie (in L.A.)
The tears are streaming after reading Ann’s words and watching the videos… why, oh why is she no longer with us. I know she’s in heaven and I know she’s okay… and I hope she knows how much we miss her and can feel all the love we all have for her, sweet, sweet girl.
