Zenith Marylyn Richmond Steinberger was the daughter of Howard Richmond and Mary Fuhrman Richmond Gremler born on June 25, 1930 in Fort Wayne, Allen County, Indiana. Zenith's father passed away while Zenith was 3 years old. Her mother then married Ernest Gremler in 1939 and while Zenith was young they relocated to Springfield, Clark County, Ohio. It was here that Zenith spent much of her younger life. She met my mother Meriel Steinberger Sterling and they became best of friends and went to many school and sporting events together. When Meriel's brother John William "Jack" Steinberger returned from serving in WW II they became interested in each other and fell in love. They married on June 4, 1949 in Maysville, Mason County, Kentucky. Jack was already living in Gould City, Mackinac County, Michigan helping to build the Berger resort with his parents. (The resort later was renamed Beaver Bay Resort.) Jack and Zenith stayed in a camper trailer at the time. While in the upper peninsula of Michigan they had their first child.

Later Zenith and Jack moved to Las Cruces, Doña Ana County, New Mexico where they both loved the cultural atmosphere and the beauty of the landscape. At sunset the mountains in view from their home turn lovely shades of pinks and golden.
Zenith was wonderful to talk with and always had many fascinating stories to tell about the family, as well as her husband Jack.
Zenith is loved deeply and greatly missed by the family and friends.
