CYPRIAN-DUNN, ALZINA MARIE
A few days ago, one we loved and knew stepped across the thresh hole that
we call death. But it was only a step into another room, not a stepping out
of fellowship of life. In Godıs own way and for His own purpose, He reached
down into our midst and called the spirit of our beloved Sis. Alzina Marie
Cyprian-Dunn home.  Alzina, known to many as "Zina" was born on December 1,
1959, to the union of Theodore Cyprian, Sr. and the late Golder
Booker-Cyprian, in Independence, LA. On Wednesday, November 25, 2009, she
departed this life at Ochsner Medical Hospital in New Orleans, LA.  As a
child her parents ensured she knew Jesus Christ by rearing her up in
church. Alzina accepted Christ as her personal savior and was baptized at
an early age at Mt. Pleasant Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership
of her grandfather, the late Rev. Elmore (E.M.) Booker, Sr. She remained a
faithful member who loved her Pastor and church family until her health
began to fail her. She will be missed greatly by all who knew her
personally and professionally. Professionally, Alzina was a licensed
cosmetologist.  She leaves to cherish her precious memories: one son ~
David Dunn, Jr. (Ashley) of Hammond, LA., her Father ~ Theodore Cyprian,
Sr., of Hammond, LA., five grandchildren ~ Ryan Dunn, Thai Dunn, Kayla
Dunn, Trey Dunn, and Jordan Johnson of Hammond, LA., nine sisters ~ Betty
C. Sims (David), Glenda C. Williams (Isaac), Golder C. Weber (Cornell), Mae
Ella C. Jones (Robert), and Wenda C. Castro (Mario) all of Hammond, LA.,
Dorothy L. Cyprian of Lancaster, TX., Marilyn R. Steptoe (Johnny) of Amite,
LA., Angie Gaspard (Willie) of Atlanta, GA., and Lois Harris of New
Orleans, LA., two brothers ~ Theodore S. Cyprian, Jr. (Gladys) and Stanley
Cyprian of Hammond, LA., six aunts, three uncles, and a host of nieces,
nephews, cousins, and many special friends.  She was preceded in death by
her: Mother ~ Golder Booker-Cyprian, a sister ~ Margaret Cyprian-Henry, two
brothers ~ Manley Cyprian and Emmitt Dillon, Grandfathers ~ Rev. Elmore
(E.M.) Booker, Sr. and Thomas Cyprian, Grandmothers ~ Mary B. Booker and
Mary B. Cyprian.  Wake and funeral service will be Friday, December 4, 2009
at 7:00 P.M. The dismissal will be Saturday, December 5, 2009 at 10:00 A.M.
at Greater Mt. Pleasant Missionary Baptist Church, 18301 Old Covington Hwy,
Hammond, La 70403. Officiating is Dr. Samuel C. Brown, Sr. ~ 
Pastor/Teacher. The interment will be in Holly Gardens. Arrangements are
