Zach's life has really made me look at myself and motivated me to talk to my own kids about being more like him. More loving, more accepting. He was fun, funny, kind, and compassionate... Even though he was only 19, It seems as if he had a full life.. With so many memories and friends. We will strive to live with love, thanks Zach...we love you!
I am just thinking of you all at this time and praying God will carry you thru this time in your life.I guess a I can see by all the words that have been spoken that he touched so many,God Bless you al...

We are so sorry for your loss of such a kind and good-hearted person. Zach has touched so many people throughout his life and will never be forgotten by those who knew him.

We are deeply saddened and praying for your family. Zach was truly a kindhearted young man and always a gentleman.
I am so sorry for your loss. Praying that God bring u comfort & peace.
Zach was one of a kind! Even though we have known him for all these years, I still had no idea the impact he made on so very many lives. I know that you ya'll are proud parents! To see how many people his short life affected, you would think he would have been 89! Such a big heart and kind soul!! He will be greatly missed! Someone referred to him as the Gentle Giant. That sums it him up so well!!!
Always love you our special "Neighbor"!
Fly High!
Praying for you Nikki and David.
We are just under the hill if you need anything.
Wilbur, Nikki, and families
I can not begin to imagine the pain you are feeling at the loss of Zach. I feel blessed that you all let me get to know Zach and enjoy spending time with him. He was a child that anyone would be proud to have around them. I know that his memory will be in our hearts forever and he is in a far better place than we can imagine. My prayer is that you find peace and comfort i and God wrap his arms around all of you in the days and months ahead. FLY high Zach and know that you are loved. I will never forget you and your example of happiness, caring for people, but most of all those sweet smiles and big hugs just when you needed them the most.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I didn't have the pleasure of know Zack that well but I know he's was a great young man. God got another good cowboy way too soon but I guess he knows he needed him.
I'm completely speechless on hearing the loss of Zach. Mattie took it hard as well. His laughter and his sense of humor was one of a kind and he will never be forgotten. I am praying for you guys.
There are no words to describe the pain we feel for your loss. Zach was an amazing guy & he leaves behind such a legacy of love, happiness & friendship. Fly high Zach.
We did not know your son Zach, but we’ve had difficult times like you’re going through right now. My wife and I lost two sons in years past and we cherish their memories. One was 21 when he was killed in a wreck while on a motorcycle and the other was 20 when he was killed in an electrical accident.
You may not think so in the next few weeks, but as time passes you will be able to think more on the good times that you had together and less about losing your son.
It is always good to hear people remember and name the one you’ve lost. Zach will not be forgotten by friends and I hope they’ll have the courage to talk of him with you.
May God comfort you.
Earnestly praying for peace.
Love each of you.
David,
Words cannot express to you how sorry I am for the loss of your son. My heart is breaking for you. Please hold tight to all of your memories of Zach; they will give you comfort. Lean on your family & friends for strength, and always remember that you are loved by so many people. I pray God will show you all of His love during this tragic time in your life, and that He will somehow help you deal with your pain & grief. Please know I am here for you if you need me. Take care of yourself.
Love & prayers,
Leslie...
You where such a great & caring young man Zack, I love you like you where was my own. So sorry for yalls loss Nicole & Wilbur, love you both.

There are just not enough words to describe what a wonderful young man Zach was and how much he will be missed. There is no doubt that the world has had a great loss because he was destined to be a person to make his mark in this world. Come to think of it, he already did.
With our love to the family and our prayers for comfort in this very sad time.
Wilbur and Nikki-
Words cannot express the heartbreak that our entire community is feeling for you and your family right now. I never knew Zach personally, but I do know you both and know how precious you both are and can only imagine how great he was. I have seen him a few times and got to see the smile that so many people are talking about. I don't think I've ever seen such an outpouring of support and prayers for anyone. I think about you both often every day. I continue to pray for comfort and strength for you and your families. God is with you. Cling to him. Love you
sorry for loss of Zackery I meet him and he was a good young man
I'm so sad about Zach. I only had the pleasure to meet him a few times but he still holds some of my favorite memories from my visits home. I always left his presence with a smile on my face, and honestly my belly hurting from laughing so hard. He was a very special person and he will be sorely missed. I am so very sorry for your loss.
So very saddened with all this...are children played together Zack, Dakota, and Brooke Lathem.. Prayers are with all of you. May God keep all of his memories tucked deeply into your heart.
To Zach's Family
I have no words that hasn't already been said. Just know that I love each of you , and I loved that big boy like he was one of mine. Just hold on to all the good memories , and turn to our Lord and Savior for the comfort that only he can give. Zach always had a hug and smile for me and Shelly. Like everyone else we will miss him so much. If there is anything I can do please call . Love and Prayers

I love you buddy. If I knew the last time I saw you would have been the last I would have never of stopped hugging you. Fly high buddy fly high
We are extremely saddened by Zach's passing. He certainly impacted many lifes's in his time here on earth. He made the feed store pleasant when he worked there. He and Cade S. gave Hannah "grief" in FAACS class. She always had a story to tell of their antics, and she loved every minute of it. Their big meal of spam casserole was the bomb for her. I'm so glad Zach shared his life with her his Sr. year when she was a sophomore.
Your not gone, your spirits still here. I'm glad to say you were a true friend to me. As little as you known me you supported me and I'm sure you supported everyone else. You will be greatly missed and forever remembered my friend. The feed store won't be the same. Prayers for the Walters have been going through every church I'm sure, especially mine. We all love you.
So sorry for your loss. Praying for your family! Prayers for Comfort and Strength in this time of grieving! Zach will be missed by many!
I only met you one time but you were an amazing young man. God Bless you and RIP
Thinking of u during this difficult time! Praying for everyone!!! Zach was a genuine friend!!! We are all so thankful for the opportunity to be his friend... That smile and his big heart we'll be missed by my whole family!!
