Mass will be at 11 am Tuesday at Our Lady of Mt Carmel in Big Oak Flat followed by burial at Our Lady of Mt Carmel Cemetery.
  2. [S2779] Union Democrat, 5 May 2010, online, Sonora running icon Eddie Zoma died last week at the St. Thomas Retirement Center in Turlock. He was 92.

    Zoma was born in 1917 in Baghdad, Iraq. He and his family were part of a small Christian community in the predominantly Islamic country, and they spoke Aramaic, a throwback to biblical days.

    Zoma loved soccer, both as a player and a spectator. According to longtime friend Jim Willey. He would walk 10 to 12 miles from his home just to watch a game, and then have to come all the way back at night.
    Zoma attended the American Jesuit High School in Baghdad, and emigrated to America in 1946 to attend the University of Detroit, also a Jesuit school.
    There, he studied organic chemistry, and was in the process of attaining his master’s degree when the United States government tapped him on the shoulder: Could he teach Arabic in the Army?
    Zoma put his formal education on hold for what he thought would be a temporary pause. Although he returned to school many times over the course of his life, he never completed his master’s, and his “temporary” stay in California lasted a lifetime
    He taught at the Presidio in Monterey before moving first to Madera, then landing a job as a pharmacist at Sierra Conservation Center, the state prison outside James-town.
    At that point, the famous Eddie Zoma Running Club was formed.
    Prisons can be pressure-cooker situations, and Zoma and his colleagues at the prison needed to let off steam. Their solution was running, first short distances and then longer and longer.
    Zoma, already a runner, would encourage his compatriots with kind words and inspiration. They presented him with a hat that said “Coach Zoma,” and later T-shirts, emblazoned with a Pegasus, that read “Eddie Zoma Running Club.”
    The club grew from a handful to more than 100, Willey said, and Zoma would give a T-shirt to every person who came to a run.
    To them, he preached moderation. Running wasn’t about going far or fast, it was about doing what you could do when you could do it.
    “He would always say, ‘You must pace yourself, everything in moderation,’ ” said Chuck Waldman, a longtime member of the group. “I can’t see him doing that, although he saw it as moderation. He drove himself pretty hard.”
    And although Zoma was known for his commitment to running and the group of runners that followed his example, he was not one to limit himself in his pursuits.
    His wife, Mae, was a skier, and he took up the sport after he retired from the prison in 1983. He took physical education classes at Columbia College, and expanded his artistic horizons with drama and art.
    He appeared in many community plays and was skilled at oil painting, which he learned during his time in Madera.
    His faith was also important to him.
    Zoma was an active member and deacon with All Saints Catholic Church in Twain Harte. On some occasions, he recited prayers in his native Aramaic, said parish member Dave Sheppard.
    Above all, Zoma was an inspiration to the community. He was acclaimed by all levels of government for his generosity and community spirit.
    “He was helpful, always trying to be a mentor,” Waldman said. “He retired before I did, and always had words of wisdom. He was full of them — Zoma-isms.”
    Zoma was buried at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Catholic Cemetery in Big Oak Flat on Tuesday.
