Zach graduated from Penn High School and enjoyed working with his parents in their family owned business; Toot-n-Tellem Towing, in Mishawaka. After participating in the Elkhart Career Center, he began his career as a CNC machinist at Value Tool in South Bend. Two years ago, he began working at Kessington Machine Products in Elkhart.

Zach loved to fish, especially the St. Joe River, with his cousin, Brian McLemore. A Monday evening was not complete without going to Wings, etc. with his brother, Lance. He enjoyed hunting and shooting his bow. He was a huge Michigan football fan. Zach was friendly, outgoing and had a smile that would light up a room. He had many friends and will be greatly missed by all. A funeral mass will be held at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday at St. Pius X Catholic Church, 52553 Fir Rd, Granger, IN 46530. Rev.
