Remembering the amazing Zachary.

Thursday, January 15, 2009 3:20 PM CST
(Taken from Scott Finestones journal)
At 2:45pm today we received our final miracle, Zachary passed away peacefully with Rebecca, Ian, Kelly and I by his side. After two days of him not being able to communicate with us, he finally escaped the cancer that has dogged him for almost nine years. We know from friends who have walked this road before us that it could have lingered on for days or even weeks, but we were spared that additional torture.

There will be visitation and a memorial service Saturday January 24, 2009 at the First Baptist Church on Jensen Beach Blvd. in Jensen Beach. We are working on those arrangements, but more than likely we will have a morning visitation (10am – 12pm) with a service celebrating Zachary’s life to follow from approx. 12:30pm – 1:30pm.

In his final act of “defiance” and of doing things his way, he left us with the typical “Zachary” smirk on his face, almost as if to say, “I know something that you don’t know!”

When all is said and done I am certain of only one thing right now. He is in a MUCH better place!
