Rootsweb has a free database online containing an index of deaths in the state of
California for the years 1940-1997. Over 9,366,786 records! (Their birth index is
online, too but only available to subscribers of
Ancestry.com)

I found many ZICKEFOOSEs listed. Take a look.
And be creative in your searches. For example, if you don't know someone's new
married name, then type in just their given name with their dad's last name. Or look
for all those with the last name of MORIKONE (or whoever) who died in a particular county.
Often names are misspelled. Allow for an occasional typo or a dyslexic typist.
