While we didn´t know Zach well personally, we did see him at a lot of softball games, cheering on his girl, Torie, while helping take care of the rest of their crew. We could tell he genuinely loved his family with all of his heart and proudly cheered them on. Joe and I are praying for you, Tracette, & all of your family. May the Lord wrap His arms around you and comfort you, bringing you peace and hope.
