Thanks very much, both of you.

I have only one slice, so I intend to increase the size of that slice into empty disk space, so I am not increasing it into space that is all ready occupied by another slice. That simplifies the process a lot. Also, within that single slice I have three partitions/labels: boot (USF2), swap, and a very large ZFS that contians all tmp, usr, and var files. I intend to increase the ZFS partition into the space opened up once the slice is increased by fdisk.

I think I understand this to mean I would need to:
1. Resize the label with fdisk
2. Resize BSDlabel containing the ZFS filesystem with bsdlabel
3. Resize/"fix" the ZFS filesystem within the resized label with growfs
(Ah! I see this is the same list that TerryP gave!)

I think this all makes sense now.
