Zane made geometry class an absolute blast! Even if you were having a bad day you couldn't help feeling better by the end. I can't believe such a wonderful man with a quick wit and an infectious smile isn't with us any more, but he will live on through everyone he came in contact with. Remember his smile, his laughter.....He will always be with you.
My sincerest condolences to the entire Murray family.
