May the Lord be with you in this your greatest time of need. My heart is deeply sadden that once again one of American heroes has been taken from us too soon.
Zachariah was one of the finest that this country has to offer and he was not afraid to stand up and fight for his country and his countrymen. I thank him for defending my right to be free.
Now may the Lord keep His hand upon you and help you through this terrible time of sorrow. God Bless you all.

Zach, we all miss and love you my man. You were, and continue to be, a big part of my everyday life, and it still feels like a part of me is missing, even after a year. Your sacrifice was not in vain and we're gonna keep doing our thing to make sure that you are not forgotten. You were a great man, and I miss you every single day.
