Zachary Steven Karavetsos, age 26 of Lynnfield, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, March 11th. He was born in Boston on September 15, 1998 and is the son of Michael and Tracy (Raczkowski) Karavetsos and the brother of Michael and Alex Karavetsos.

Zack was raised in Lynnfield and a graduate of Lynnfield High School, Class of 2017. He then went on to graduate from North Shore Community College for Horticulture.

Zack spent many fun nights in Boston attending concerts, Celtics games and dinners with friends. He was free spirited and had a “no fear” mentality when it came to how he approached life. He had big dreams, a big heart, and a smile for everyone. Laughter was his answer for everything!

Interment to follow at Puritan Lawn Memorial Park in Peabody. There will be no visitation. Arrangements in the care of the McDonald Funeral Home, Wakefield.
