Becky & Chuck, and the entire Taylor family, our hearts go out to all of you, and I am entirely grateful to Becky for her clear & loving message at Zac's service.... Zac was most certainly FREAKIN' AWESOME! Maggie was especially close to Zac in their middle school years at Glasgow and I enjoyed volunteering with Becky at occasional school things, as well as being neighbors (we're at the corner of Oakwood & Maplewood). We remember Zac Attack well, and Maggie cherishes those sweet memories of him stealing her binder in class to write fun hidden messages, and especially the great time they had going to the midnight premier of Harry Potter Deathly Hallows Part I followed by sitting in our yard sharing good conversation... this was the last time Maggie saw Zac in-person because he left for Korea shortly afterward, but they kept-up with each other through social media and even talked this past summer about Maggie coming out to CO to visit him sometime.
Zac Attack lives within our hearts forever... Peace be with the Taylor family.

Mr. & Mrs. Taylor,
We've never met, but I work with your beautiful Daughter Lauren, and have fallen head over heals in love with Carsen. I wish I had the words to express the depth of my heartfelt sympathy, but please know there is not a day that has gone by that I am not thinking and praying for your hearts.

To Zac's Family and Friends,

My son, Ian Bobbett, was Zac's roommate this fall. I met Zac when I helped Ian get situated in his new apartment as a transfer student to CU in August. Zac was so warm and friendly when I met him. I was extremely impressed with his demeanor (not to mention his album collection, from classical music to the Beatles!).

Ian talked so highly of Zac, and spoke often of his intelligence, friendliness, and willingness to help Ian with his transition to CU. Ian told me they would often watch the Colorado Rockies baseball games on TV. Zac helped Ian navigate around campus and the surrounding Boulder area, including the Flat Irons.

There are some things in this life that we cannot comprehend. This is one of them. Our deepest condolences to you during this time. I simply cannot imagine what you are going through.

If you ever want to reach out to me, please feel free to do so. I only met Zac one time, and Ian only knew him for a few weeks, but he made a positive impact on us that we will never forget.

Much love to you,

Nan Bobbett

Zac was one of my best and only friends in Colorado. He was one of the most intelligent and vibrant people I've ever met in my life. He helped me with my schoolwork whenever I needed it, and we loved to talk about Kansas basketball and CU football. I feel so lucky to have been able to meet him when I did, he was always there for me during a time in my life when I needed it. When I got engaged to be married he was one of the only people to call and congratulate me; he had a gigantic heart. We will miss Zac greatly and will never forgot the loving person that he was and inspired the rest of us to be.

It has been a long time since Zac and I interacted back in our STM days, but I will always remember him being such a fun and kind person to be around. He knew how much all my crazy soccer commitments meant to me and would always ask how things were going with my team. Elementary school is a difficult time when everyone is still developing and learning how to behave, but even back then, I remember looking up to Zac as a model of matruity and exemplary character. Sending lots of prayers for your family.

I met Zac back in kindergarten, he was one of the first friends I ever made in school. Growing up with Zac, I will never forget all the memories we had back at STM. My memories with you will never be forgotten Zac, Rest easy bud

I cannot comprehend your death. You were a friend of the best kind and I will always remember the memories we shared together. To the Taylor family, I hope you find light in all this darkness. Rest In Peace, Zac.

I met Zach in middle school, he always found a way to make people laugh, whether it was at lunch or in class, there was never a dull moment with him. I am so thankful to have been able to get the time to know. His memory will live on for years. Rest easy.

I'm at a loss for words and am deeply saddened. I will never forget the memories we made together. One of my favorite memories with you is when we would go to the pool and eat ice cream and french fries and just spend all day playing with each-other having the time of our lives! That's also where we kissed for the first time (underwater)!!! You were my best friend and have impacted my life tremendously. My thoughts and prayers are with you family. My sincerest condolences for an incredibly great loss.
