Today is 6 months, I still can’t believe you are gone, you are my son. Kim is living at the house with the kids, she has a picture of you on the wall and one about her sun visor. Matthew had a dream of you the other night, he screamed out for you. Kim has dreams about you and cries out for you as well. It hurt so bad the hear Matthew to scream for you. I don’t know what he heard or seen that night. Both boys miss you, Matthew talks about you a lot. I just wanted to let you know that I really love and miss you. Nothing takes the pain away, I think I live for the boys now more than anything. Anyway I love you, I am going to talk to Bugsy and Cassondra. Love you my son.
Son, I hurt so much. I love and miss you
It has been 4 weeks today that we lost you, I can’t even come to terms with it. I keep thinking of the boys not growing up with you in their lives. Son you are so missed. Misty was in the emergency room, then was put in the hospital for the day because they though she was going to have a heart attack, every time she thinks about you she gets chest pains. I don’t know what happened that night, I just can’t make any sense out of it. Matthew is acting out at school, he doesn’t understand why your not here anymore. Son just to let you know you are so loved and so missed.
I miss you beyond words, and I just don’t understand. I don’t know why and how. There were so many years left to spend as a family. I love you my son, my baby.
RIP Zachary 🙏🙏
Zach when u walked into a room it was if a big giant ball of sunshine followed u
I will miss your big beautiful smile & most of all I will miss that every single time I saw u no matter if it was your parents front porch or the gas station u always said hey sister & gave me one of those Zach hugs that made everything seem just a little bit better in this world
I will miss u my friend
I knew Zach for many years and watched him grow. He and my son Christopher were the best of friends. He will be truly missed! My heart goes out to the family for their loss. Love you Zach! Fly high my sweet boy. I know you and Christopher are walking the Streets of Gold together now like you did in the neighborhood as kids!
Kim my heart breaks for you and your little family. While i never got to meet your love in person i did see him in passing on our video chats . You all had such love and light. Im always going to be here for you.
MY heart goes out to the parents as well .
Zach was my classmate all through grade school and he was such a light and kind soul. My deepest condolences to his loved ones. May God bring you strength and comfort.
You were an awesome person. You talked with me on more then one occasion about deep stuff especially when we were at the place in beaumont randomly together. You never seemed to even mind haha. Man I will miss you wish I could’ve given you one last amazing chest compressing, air restricting hugs. ❤️
Thus hurts so bad, and I apologize for not really even knowing what to say other than to offer my support and condolences during this hard time. Zach was THE BEST FRIEND to ALL of his homies and is definitely a friend Ive kept closer to me, like a brother. I always loved seeing how much love and light he shared with this dark world and with doing that taught me to see life from a different perspective. I’m glad that we were able to reconnect and I was able to meet his beautiful little family before moving across the country.. Dear Kim, NO MATTER WHAT yall are my FAMILY now too! Always here for yall so please reach out if there’s anything I can do.. until then, all of my love goes out to the entire family. Zach is a beautiful soul that won’t ever be forgotten. ♡☆♡☆♡
Zach you will forever be in our hearts an missed greatly.. Such a wonderful young man whose smile would lite up everyones face.. love you boy..
Misty, sending you, your mom, dad and his 2 beautiful babies all my love and prayers sweetie. My heart is so broken. Zach was such a good kid. I will so miss his smile and big hugs every time I saw him.
