Zack was loved by our family! My Uncle Bud and Mom (Sequita) thought the world of him. My children, Kyle and Leigh, have enjoyed talking with him at each OU football game while he always sat directly in front of them for so many years! Zack will be missed. My prayers for your family and your Church family at Wayne Church of Christ today and for the many days to come. May you remember the joy you had with your husband, dad, and Christian brother.

He will be missed by many. He had an impact on so many people over the years. He had a gift of always seeming to talk with you instead of talking at you. The world is a bit less without knowing he is still in it. Rest In Peace my friend.

To Zach's family, please accept my heartfelt condolences. I went to school with Zach for 12 years. I was so fortunate to visit with him not long again. It will forever be etched in my memory. "Bulldogs" 74. Rest in peace buddy, you are in the arms of Jesus, and will be missed.

Coach Powell, you are remembered with love and appreciation. Thank you for making science class (and school) fun and teaching us that working hard on the court is fun, too. Now, all your shots WILL fall like Larry Birds :)

Zach didn't decide to grow in physical stature until his Senior year in Hight School, or maybe even his freshman year in college. He never did grow to the size of big brother John. What Zach did do was grow in character to become a Christian man, husband, father, son, brother, and leader in the community. My heart felt condolences to all the family and friends. I am at your service.

Spent a lot of Friday and Saturday nights...well, pretty much the other days of the week as well.... with Zack eating pizza! He was a great friend and I'm so glad he got to play golf with Jordan on his last day on this earth. We never know when its our time and we need to smell the flowers!

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Powell family. What a shock and sadness to lose such a good friend and mentor in Zack. We really became close these last 15 years when we moved to Purcell. We had wonderful times together whether it be on the golf course, OU football games, or just getting together and hanging out as friends do. He was my mentor when I decided to become a Superintendent & was always the first one I would call if I had a question. Zack was a great man, mentor and friend whom I will miss greatly. Heaven got a first class person in Mr. Zack Powell.

So many emotions right now. Just a few hours previous we finished a round of golf where he had carded 4 birdies. He was so positive and inspiring as he had been hundreds of times before. I still can't believe he is gone.
Proud to have rode the bench together at WHS proud to serve on school board and most of all just being his friend.

My deepest condolences to Zacks family . He was one of my best friends. A truly giving / caring man to anyone he knew. God blessed ZACK in my life. I enjoyed working for him, then having him as a mentor / friend when I became a Superintendent.
Heaven has opened its doors for a truly great man.

I spent 8 of the best years of my teaching career at Wayne. When my brother died, I was concerned about getting home because pay day was several days off. Mr. Powell found out and presented me with my paycheck. He said, If this is the least I can do for you, I will do this. Compassion for others sorrows, love for everyone.

Zack was one of thirteen lifelong friends that began the first grade at Wayne schools in the fall of 1962 thru the Spring of 1974 when we all graduated. Most of us all went our separate ways but the bond that we all shared is still strong today spanning over over 50 years. He is the first to leave our elite little group.
Zack was my friend. I will miss him greatly. He definitely made a difference in this world.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
Until we meet again, my friend, Rest In Peace.
