Zachary was a bright light. He filled a room by smiling and just saying hello. He truly cared for all people and gave his heart to family, friends and parents of friends. I will remember his blue eyes that sparkled. I agree with others. We will miss him always, but for those who were close to him, I hope you experience his love and guidance as our personal angel in heaven.

May God bless the Marr family at this difficult time and heal your broken hearts. Though I do not know you, I feel the sadness as I have sons the same age as your loved son. May you find peace in the wonderful memories you have and hold them close and dear to your heart.

There are no words in the world that will console parents grieving the death of a child.
Even though we are at a loss of words, we pray that God will bless you with all the strength one needs to make it through this hard time.
May the soul of your child rest in everlasting peace.
