"Dear Tom, Sally & family,We are truly heartbroken to hear about Zach's death. And oh how we wish heaven was a senior citizen home but that is not the case as we were told when Bob's brother died at the age of 18. May it comfort you to know Zach's passing was not unexpected, sad or tragic to God but Divinely appointed, highly anticipated and greatly celebrated. As God determined the number of our days on earth before we took our first breath (Psalm 139:16). May the promise of heavenly reunions at Jesus' feet on a day that has no end give you peace, strength and hope...We love you and are bathing you all in prayer through an ocean of tears.love,"

"Dear Austin, Mr. Hruban and Family,I can't tell you how sorry I am to hear about your loss. I will always have such fond memories of Zach hanging out with Austin, Max and myself during our last year of high school. On one of our trips to the horse racing track, Zach came along all decked out in a shirt and tie, looking dapper and having fun with his older brother and friends. It was always a joy to have him tag along on our adventures, his great sense of humour always managed to really make me laugh. That is how I will remember him, and I think that is a great way to be remembered. I am thinking of you all and sending my love to your family.Ben"
