Very sad. Zach was way to young. Feel bad for his family.

I agree. Really nice guy. Crazy, I just said hello to him on Saturday in the tourney. Life is way too short.

Still in shock on this one. Really sad, and feel just horrible for his family. He was a fairly quiet guy, but always had a smile and was fun to chat with. He'll be missed by all.

How sad. I played with Zach at Schwoegler's many times. He was a quiet guy, but always friendly. :(

Zach was a bit quiet, I tried many times to strike up a conversation, with a little luck. I knew he liked gaming and received his degree in Economics, but not too much. I played with him the previous month (I think) and he was really getting angry with AFM. I smiled as I've been there many times.

I just don't understand how things like this can happen, but it really moves one to try and be kind to others all the time. I plan on going to the funeral tomorrow.

Hey guys, just updating you all about the charity funds and card from Tom’s Tournament on 4/28. I dropped off the money and card at Temple Beth El and was assured the card would be given to the family the next time they came to the temple. Thanks to all those who played the one-ball tourney and those who donated! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍
