Although officials had not yet matched the remains found at Zoldoske's home with her DNA, her family was confident she had died and held a memorial service Tuesday in Moore.
Zoldoske's body was found Aug. 5 in her wildfire-destroyed home on Bridge Creek Drive near 144th Avenue SE and Cedar Lane.
Wildfires that started Aug. 3 caused damage to more than 100 structures and burned more than 7,900 acres in Cleveland County, fire Deputy Chief Jim Bailey said.
Zoldoske was reportedly preparing to evacuate her home when she was caught in the fast-moving fire.
Hers was the only death reported in a rash of wildfires that burned more than 300 homes in the state.
