Jim, Wendy and family, It so hard to find the right words at a time like this. Zach was one of the most respectful and kind hearted people I have ever met. Always a smile on his face and willing to help anybody at any time. I had the privlage to know him for many years and got the chance to work with him at the race track many times and even enjoy a few bike rides. I feel honered to have had Zach as a freind and he will be sadly missed. So I will be thinking about the family during this this time and hopeing that some day I will get to shake Zach's hand again.
