Zachariah Boyle

Zachariah “Zak” James Boyle, 41, of DeQuincy, passed away on Wednesday, July 21, 2021 at his residence.

He was born to his parents, Michael and Maria Boyle on May 16, 1980 in Vineland, New Jersey. He enjoyed eating his ice cream (especially chocolate), watching movies, and TV shows like Little House On The Prairie, the Waltons, The Wizard of Oz, Sound of Music, and Mr. Holland’s Opus. He also loved his stuffed animals, especially his Puppy Love. Zak was a cheerful giver, and loved doing it. Most of all, he loved going to church and saying Amen; he loved his Lord and Savior.

He is survived by parents; one brother, Michael Boyle, Jr. (Jennifer) of DeQuincy; two sisters, Rachel Vazquez (John Paul) of Friendswood, Texas, Caitlin Coombs (Dusty) of League City, Texas; and a host of nieces and nephews.

Zak was preceded in death by his grandparents, Hazel and Joseph Giacomelli and Helen and Russell Boyle.

A Celebration of Zak’s life was held at the DeQuincy Church of Christ on Sunday, July 25, at 4 p.m., with Rev. Al Woodard officiating. Visitation was at the DeQuincy Church of Christ on Sunday, from 2 p.m. until the time of the service.

Services were entrusted to Jordan and Amanda Mothershed of Hixson-Snider Funeral Home, 205 E. Harrison St., DeQuincy.
