Zachary Emmitt Stall

April 29, 1992 – February 4, 2026

Zachary Emmitt Stall, age 33, passed away on February 4, 2026. Born on April 29, 1992, Zach lived a life defined by devotion — to his family, his country, his work, and to the people he loved.

Above all else, Zach was a devoted husband to his wife, Chelsea Stall, and a loving father to Riley, Madelyn, Emmitt, and Audrey. If you knew Zach, you knew his wife and children were his world. He lived for them. Every decision he made, every sacrifice he carried, was rooted in his deep love and commitment to his family. His love for them does not fade — it remains constant, enduring, and everlasting.

Zach proudly served his country as a decorated Sergeant in the United States Army, including a tour in Afghanistan. He served with courage, loyalty, and honor — qualities that continued to define him long after his military service ended.

After his time in the Army, Zach became a journeyman lineman, a profession that reflected his strength, skill, and relentless work ethic. He took pride in hard work and in providing for his family, never shying away from long hours or tough conditions. He was the kind of man who showed up — on the job, at home, and for anyone who needed him.

He is the beloved son of Michael and Angela Stall; cherished brother to Tiffany Tolle (Billy) and Kasey McGuire (Zach); and a proud uncle. He was a treasured grandson to Joann Moats, Linda Murrell, Michael Stall, Terry Murrell, and Ruth Stall, and a dear nephew to Wendy Stall Fields (Kenny) and Philip Moats. He also leaves behind countless extended family members and lifelong friends who will forever carry his memory in their hearts.

Zach was, simply put, the greatest friend. Dependable without question and loyal without condition, he was someone you could go to for anything. He had a gift for storytelling and could light up any room with laughter. Whether through humor, advice, or quiet support, he made people feel valued and understood. His friendships were deep, lasting, and genuine.

Zach’s life was marked by strength, laughter, sacrifice, and fierce love. His legacy lives on in the family he adored, the friendships he built, and the countless stories that will continue to be told — stories filled with humor, courage, and heart.

"The song is ended, but the melody lingers on."
