Making a Way for Others: Remembering Houston’s Beloved Trailblazer, Judge Zinetta Burney
Houston has lost one of its brightest lights and most formidable champions for justice, Judge Zinetta Burney, who passed away on Sunday at the age of 83. Surrounded by love in hospice care, she held the hand of her ‘adopted’ daughter and dear friend of 25 years, Cindy Clifford, in her final moments. A true pillar in the community, Judge Burney dedicated her life to fighting for those often forgotten, embodying selflessness, perseverance, and an unyielding commitment to opening doors for others.
