It has been some time since I last visited this site. I miss and think of Zach often. My thoughts and prayers continue for his family.

What a shock it was to hear about Zach! I had the honor of knowing him for the past 15 years. During the first 8 of those years I had the pleasure of working with him on many joint projects, when I was managing the Chamber of Commerce in Oklahoma City. Zach was the Co-Chair of my Leadership Oklahoma City Class. He and I worked on Central Oklahoma 2020 together with many other wonderful folks from the OKC area. But my favorite project was one we partnered together on along with Dean Schirf...

To the family and friends of Zach Taylor, and all of the staff at ACOG,
Please accept my heartfelt condolences in your loss. I was not privileged to know Zach well. Yet, every time I dropped by the office, (and though he had nothing to gain) Zach always took time to visit with me. May the Lord Jesus Christ Himself fill the void Zach left in your hearts and lives.

Deepest sympathy to the family of Zack Taylor. Zach was a great friend of public transportation in central Oklahoma and a great guy.

Gratitude...when I think of working for Zach at ACOG for the past 22 1/2 years, I am filled with a sense of gratitude. I am thankful for the many interesting talks we had; I am honored to have worked for a man of integrity; I am appreciative of his sense of humor, and his good nature that handled teasing well.
Zach, it was a privilege to work for you. Thank you for your support and trust. I am truly grateful.

Hearing about the untimely death of such an influential person in my life was so unexpected. I wanted to share what a big influence Zach had on me as my career was just getting started. I worked briefly at ACOG during the mid 1980’s. I was a graduate student at OU and applied for an internship with ACOG during my program of study. While I only spent about a year there, I spent the next ten or fifteen looking for another organization with such a great director. Zach was always available...
