Zach was truly an amazing man, and an amazing father of 6 kids. His life revolved around them. He was a person that was always willing to help when needed. Zach was a hard worker and put his heart into everything he did. Zach never believed in doing anything halfway. Zach met his wife in 2005 and truly loved her. Zach had such a pure love for his family that is rare to see these days. He fought his battle with cancer for 3 years just to have more time with them. His aunt Kelly was one of his best friends along with his cousin Aaliyah. He was always a mama’s boy at heart. His father Frank was a huge part of his life during his sickness alongside his mother Betty. Zach was a devoted Christian and believed in our Father.
