FROM IAN CHRISTIE (WRITER/AUTHOR): 
 
I'm stunned and saddened to hear of the passing of Marsha Zazula, cofounder of Megaforce Records with her husband
Jon Zazula
. Without her, it's unlikely you would know the names Metallica, Anthrax, Overkill, Testament, Mercyful Fate, or S.O.D. Megaforce had guts, ambition, style, taste, and strength, and saying that about a family business is saying that about Marsha. I'm grateful she and Jonny came on my Sirius show in the early 2000s, I was starstruck, it was such a pleasure.
"Beyond the realms of mortal men..."
R.I.P. Marsha Zazula
 
FROM METALLICA: 
Rest In Peace, Marsha. Thank you for everything.
Much love to Jonny Z & the Zazula family.
 
FROM ANTHRAX: 
 
It’s with much sadness that we hear of the passing of Marsha Zazula. A true pioneer along with Johnny Z. Those two were responsible for changing all our lives.
Hard to put into words what a world this might be without their belief and dedication to metal and all of us. Our love to her family
- Anthrax
 
FROM JASON BITTNER (OVERKILL): 
 RIP Marsha.....
 
FROM JAMES HETFIELD (METALLICA): 
"Marsha Z is the Metal Matriarch of the East Coast. She was our mother when I had none. She made great sacrifices for Metallica to grow. Thank you Marsha. Love and positive energy to the Zazula family.” — James Hetfield
