Fryz I'm so sorry I held that grudge. All those times at my house, being dumb and having fun. You had the strongest will out of anyone I've ever known. You loved life and lived it to the fullest. I'm always gonna miss you friend.

To the family and friends of Zach...this young man stayed at my house many times with my grandson Daryn Skeath. He was always polite and would sit in the kitchen and talk to me while I made him scrambled eggs. Such a tragic loss. He is with the angels and all of his loved ones in heaven. May God bless and comfort you in your grief.
