Nicholas “Nick” Zarate was well known for being born and raised in the northeast area of Austin, Texas, where his life was tragically taken just a few days ago. He was a lively, funny, and charismatic man who connected with the lives of many in our community.

His tragic passing has left a deep void in our family, especially for his three youngest teenage sons, whose ages range from 14 to 18 yo - Nickoli, Nicky and Nehemiah Zarate.

His family has overcome many losses over the years, and this tragedy has been shattering for his sons, family and friends.

We are now coming together to support his boys as they navigate this difficult time without their father. The funds raised will go directly toward covering funeral costs and providing support for his sons as they continue their education, extracurricular activities and daily lives.

We are grateful for all love, support and prayers during this time.
