Jeffrey Zackon

To the Zackon family. I am very sorry that Jeff has begun a new journey that takes him away from you. I was an exchange student many years ago and had the absolute pleasure of being part of the Zackon family. Your loss will be overwhelming I am sure. Jeff invited people from all walks of life into his family. I am very humble that I had the pleasure of being part of a very special persons life.

Dawn, Jeff, ("Mr. Zackon") was my teacher in elementary school at Gwyn-Nor. He also got my brother and I into wrestling and coached us at the YMCA program. He was a great teacher, coach, and person.
I saw Jeff's obituary on the North Penn High School Class of 1981 Memorial Page on Facebook and wanted to offer my thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

My Deepest Sympathy to your family.

I did not know Dr. Zackon but still felt a bond as we were in the same Fraternity. His name was added to the Omega rolls of Lambda Chi and the Sigma-Gamma chapter will forever remember him.

Dear Dawn,

My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family .

I taught with Jeff at Gwyn-Nor Elementary School in North Wales and we had a dynamic fifth grade team....mainly because of Jeff's enthusiasm, youth, and great sense of humor.

I am stunned by the news of his passing.
There are so many great memories I have of Jeff and working with him. Most of all I would have to say his smile and sense of humor will be foremost in my memories of him..

Dawn and Family- No words can express my how sorry I am for the loss of Jeffrey. I am grateful to have spent the short time I did with him on the trip to Europe. I could see how much the two of you truly loved one another. I keep going back to the stories you both shared about your times together...all the proms and of the many trips together with the school. May all those memories of your life and love together get you through. I may not have known him long, but in that short time, I...

Dr. Zackon was a friend and mentor. He was a dedicated educator and the people of Oley Valley are lucky to have known him and have benefitted from his leadership. One thing that I always admired was his sense of humor during trying times.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dawn and the entire Zackon family.

You could always count on Dr. Zackon during the Oley Fair to help at the soda stand. We shared many good times over the past 22 years while I supervised the stand during the Oley Fair. He was also a HUGE help in my education. Although his time in this life has come to an end, him memory and legacy will live on in the Oley Valley.
