Zach is my smiling, gracious nephew. While quiet and careful, he did a great job handling his life in his own perfect existence. May we remember him as a reflection of his mother’s generosity. Perhaps Moreso, remember his accepting nature full of hope and be inspired by the memories of his tremendous contribution to our lives. Please contact me for continued memoria at kgn4441@yahoo.com to include burial site. I will always love Zach as I am sure you will.

Zach is our grandchild, always the loving, curious little boy. Zach loved sitting on his Mama's lap and look at books. He spent a lot of time with his Grandpa Rudy and Tutu. We visited him and his brother EJ at every house he lived in from a beautiful house Tina bought in NW Portland and ran a day care for a few children to support her self and her boys. I can visualize Zach around 7 months old bouncing in a jumper his Mom attached to a door in the kitchen. As Zach grew older he captured the hearts of all who new him. He generated his sweet spirit, always smiling and playing with his cousins at another houser his Mother bought. Later in Westlynn, then on to California where Grandpa Rudy and Tutu would visit and stay with him. Other times Tina would come to Hawaii and stay with us often, and once for a month. Again, Zach would sit on his Mothers lap while his Grandpa would play his guitar and sing to him. He would reach up and twirl his Mothers hair. When Catrina married Dave Smith a whole new era began for him. We were welcomed into their home many times during those 10 years in Del Mar; California. Since his Tutu took pictures and made books for the family she was able to pass many of the pictures on to Zacachy soon after his Mothers passing. While sitting with Grandpa he talked a bit about his Mother. This boy knew his Mother loved him, cherished her boys. He commented on the few pictures on his Mommy’s lap. As I write this it is with a heavy ?? heart, yet knowing so many loved this sweet soul. Should anyone want pictures I have many to pass on. Please let me know. We love you Zach. Grandpa and “Tutu”:
