Dear Zachary,


Well Zach I am trying my hardest to get the word out about your website and blog. I hope your friends have the opportunity to post their feelings, I think it will be good for them. While making your slide show it suddenly dawned on me....You sure were a handsome little bugger!! It also got me thinking about one of our last trips together. Remember when we went down to Aunt Theresas and you just had to go shopping (Gee, go figure...you shopping!) I was so amazed at the bathrooms in the mall. They had nifty lil' knobs on their water faucets and I made you take your camera phone in and get a picture. I really wish I could get ahold of that picture!! It tears me to pieces to know that you and I were not that close when you were growing up. The simple fact that we were only 15 miles away makes it even harder to deal with. Just when we started to connect, you were gone. I know in my heart of hearts that you are not angry with us for not spending more time, but it doesn't make it any better. But, just knowing that we had a blast when we did spend time together makes it a little easier to deal with. Uncle Jake is doing his best to put on a good front for others, but you and I both know that's not the truth. He had a really hard time at the cemetary on Sunday but he shuts down and won't talk about it. Maybe you could whisper a lil' something to help him get by. I better get going for now, I have a few more things to do on your website. I'm sure I will write again tonight when things calm down.

XOXOXO



Aunt Denise

I have a thing for calling everyone by their first name and my middle name ( ex. Kelly Marie ). Well I remember calling Zach that one day and he just looked at me and said, "I'm not Zachary Marie". So from that day on, he was only Zachary Taylor. His newest sister's name is Taylor Aimee but I call her Taylor Marie just to keep the "Marie" thing going : )

Miss you everyday Zach.

Hey I never knew Zack but I just want to say I am very sorry for your lost and I know how you feel. Cuz I lost my baby brother 2 days after he was born. And i also lost my baby cousin just before his second birthday. But dont worry cuz zack is in a better place now and he will always be in your heart.
