Zack was a senior at St. Paul’s Catholic High School in Worcester. He was an avid athlete who excelled both on and off the baseball field. He loved traveling with his NEB and St. Peter-Marian baseball teams. His enthusiasm and dedication was an inspiration for his teammates and all who were fortunate enough to have met him. Off the field, Zack could be found on the slopes in Vermont or the beaches in Maine. As humble as he was, he would light up a room every time he walked in. He loved to make everyone laugh. His brother, Nate will especially miss his witty remarks and comments. He truly cherished spending time with his family and friends.
