Zack’s Place

September, 27 2011
Dear friends, 
 
With profound sadness, we write to inform you of the unexpected passing of Zack Frates on Sunday, September 25. Since childhood, Zack had a larger-than-life personality– His mere presence, that touched so many of us, will be deeply missed by all. Now, more than ever, we feel the need to sustain our commitment to his dream and to his peers. Zack’s Place will continue– We will uphold our mission to provide a haven and community enrichment to those in need.

Although he is not here with us physically, his spirit, and the memory of his warm smile will be the beacon which continually guides us.

 
 
Thank you for your kind support in this difficult time.
 

 
The Zack’s Place Board of Directors
