She was active in the Kenmore United Methodist Church in New York and in the Mission Hills United Methodist Church in San Diego. She moved from Buffalo, N.Y., to San Diego in 1935, because the firm her husband worked for, Consolidated (a former name of Convair), decided to build it's airplanes in California, where the weather was more suitable for flying and testing airplanes. The couple planned to stay two years, but they never left "sunny San Diego".
Zoe was active as a Cub Scout Den Mother and Girl Scout Leader. She was active in the PTA's of each of the schools her children attended. She was an active member of the local Book Club and a member of the Tuesday Club. Zoe assisted with the Heart Fund Drive for 17 years.
