Stephen William Zsiray Jr.

Dear Zsiray Family,

Our heartfelt sympathy goes to your family in this difficult time. We will always remember the kind way Steve treated my young sons when they visited during the early days of InTech. My sons always knew who would give them candy when their mom was too busy. The world has lost a kind man.

Our prayers are with you during this painful time.

Several of my children benefited from the extraordinary vision Steve had when he created Intech Collegiate High School. We so appreciated all he did for the students, especially in that opening year. Our sympathy goes out to his family and friends.

Dear Paula, Jennifer and John,

I learned yesterday that your sweet Steve passed away. I will always remember him as a wonderful teacher at Spring Creek. He was sincerely dedicated to his students and later, so diligently, strove to bring grant money to Cache County School District.

His humor reached out of his classroom doors and touched everyone. I enjoyed his chuckle and playful smile. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him. My thoughts are with you.

Paula & Jenn, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your husband and dad. My heart breaks for you. He was always so funny and kind whenever I came over to hang out at your home during our good old high school days. Sending my deepest sympathies, thoughts, and prayers to you all.

I always liked Steve. He was fun, and frank, and full of life. He was a loyal friend and he cared deeply for those around him. He saw the best in people, and helped them to believe in themselves too. He was generous, and compassionate, and kind-hearted, and humble.

I have fond memories of Steve wiping tables after school lunch, and picking up trash on the schoolyard, and patching a hole in the wall so that a wayward student would not have to pay for the accidental damage. He was...

Steve Zsiray had a gift for seeing someone's potential and then providing a means to reach it. He made a difference for so many, myself included. InTech Collegiate High school is just now reaching the potential Steve knew was there. This spirit of potential is what makes InTech such a wonderful place, and that spirit is Steve Zsiray's legacy. Wishing you all peace.

Dear Paula and family, I am sending my deepest condolences to you. When I heard of Steve's passing, I started thinking about the educational legacy that Steve has lovingly left with us all. I met Steve over 15 years ago as I (and Ronda Kingsford) founded the English Language Center of Cache Valley. Steve was hugely instrumental in helping us secure funding for our fledgling program. Since then, we have taught English and basic life skills to thousands of immigrant students. Steve mentored...
