I had Zach through most of high school at Octorara as a student. I am so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed Zach's sense of humor in class and he was always a student that cared for others and respected those around him. I will always carry fond memories of him with me. This is so tragic. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. May you find peace in his memory.

Mooney,
We are truly saddened to hear of your loss. I only met your son a few times back in his early teens and I like to share with you and your family one of my moments that encouraged me to inspire my grandson. When my grandson was just starting into kindergarten I had taken him with me for some early Saturday morning shopping and he had the opportunity to meet Zach at one of Zach’s fund raiser events for the Scouts at the Wal-Mart , it was a car wash & popcorn sale . My grandson had seen all of the fun the boys were having and all the badges that Zach had earned , it had quite an impression on my grandson ,as he is still in the scouting today as a Webelo (Pack 133), earning his badges and has two other younger brothers that will more than likely follow, and I hope they all go as far with scouting as Zach.
I know you are very proud of him and I hope your fond memories of him will help heal you all.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.
May God Bless you All in this time of sorrow.
Linda
