When I first met my uncle Zack as long as I can remember he always cared about me first and never gave up on my in baseball or never let me sit at the racetrack alone. He always let me help with his car and always would play with me and Kamryn no matter what else was happening. I love and miss him so much and will never forget these amazing times I had with him.
