He is also survived by his paternal grandmother, Shelley Waugh of Copenhagen and his maternal grandmother, Deb Canell, of Lowville; his Waugh family, Donald "Cal" & Andi Waugh of Stone Mountain, Georgia; Chuck and Lisa Waugh of Watertown, NY; Amanda "Mandy" Strickler of Norton Shores, Michigan; cousins, Jordan Waugh, Jaryn McAleney, Jayden Waugh, and Brennan and Gaige Strickler; his Canell family, Jackie Canell and cousins, Miranda Canell and Heather Yousey.

He loved modifying trucks, wheelers, and sleds to make them go faster with the help of Kendra's family, Jamie and Mike. He enjoyed drag racing snowmobiles and entering truck pulls. He loved his Dodge Cummins, doing burnouts and watching the smoke roll. He loved being in his dad's garage whether it was welding, working on one of his toys, or simply just hanging out. He had the privilege of helping his mom with her horses. He also enjoyed playing darts and cornhole. Zach had an amazing heart and was very kind and caring to everyone around him. He was always willing to lend a hand to anyone that needed it. Zach had a lot of friends and touched the hearts of many people. He loved his family, especially his son, Owen.
