Fly High Zachary David Schenone

I am organizing this page with devastation and honor. My name is Caden Ramirez, I am from Redding, CA and Zach has always and will forever be my best friend.  We have known eachother since kindergarten and have been attending Chico State together, roomates, and both members of the same fraternal brotherhood.  With a pure soul, insatiable work ethic, and a passion for life...Zach was infectious.  Zach was the center of so many relationships and everyone who knew him, considered him a genuine friend.  Zach was the real deal.   I am hoping to give Zach and his family some relief during this time of loss.  The Schenones have always been there for so many people.  I am asking for you to consider to do the same for them.  Let's join together to honor Zachary David Schenone.  If you knew Zach, you know that he was a crafty character and was building his life to its fullest in his 21 years with us.  Zach was currently attending Chico State, pursuing a Construction Management Degree.  He was highly involved in campus clubs and a brother of the Sigma Chi Fraternity.  Zach accepted an internship in Redding for the summer and was so excited to share his skills with everyone.  DJ, Michelle, and Nick...this is unbearable.  We do know however that Z is flying high in Heaven.  Zach...just one more day with you.  That's all I want right now.  I know that I will see you again buddy.  Until then, we will honor you and give back to this world everything that you have given to us.  You made this world a better place.

We love you and our hearts are broken.  

Strong Arms, Z

Zach's  mom, dad and brother live in Santa Rosa and Zach was currently living in Chico.  The money donated will be used to cover the costs of the service, Celebration of Life and other associated costs.  All additional money will be donated directly to TheZachSchenoneFoundation that is currently being established by Zach's father, uncle and grandmother.  My family has been given the tremendous honor of helping the Schenone Family during this difficult time.  As the beneficiary, Abie Ramirez (from Redding, CA), my dad,  have established a withdrawal plan and will be working directly with Zach's parents to pay all funeral related expenses and transfer any extra money directly to the foundation established in Zach's honor.  My father, Abie Ramirez, has known Zach and his family for the last 16 years and there is no greater honor than to help them during this time of need.
