Zachary Richard Kammer passed away Wednesday, August 5th, 2020 in Eatonton, GA
at the age of 26. Born September 17, 1993, he was the third child and first-born son of
Keith Kammer and Linda Yates Kammer of Lilburn, GA.
Though born in Tempe, Arizona, Zachary was a Georgia boy
through and through. Growing up, Zachary loved exploring in creeks, playing
soccer, and being at the lake with his family. He would tell you that he
lettered in two sports in high school, football and soccer, but soccer was
his true passion. His Senior Superlative was ‘Best Eyes’. Zachary graduated
from Parkview High School and then went on to Georgia College and State
University, where he was very involved with Habitat for Humanity and their local ReStore.
He then transferred to the University of Georgia, where he majored in Accounting. He
was so proud to be a Bulldog, and he tailgated at every home football game
he could attend.
It was at one of these tailgates that he met his wife, Jessica. They met in
September of 2017 and were married on October 20th of the following year.
Georgia, they moved to Charlotte, North Carolina for Zach’s job at Ernst &
Young. He worked as a Risk Advisor there for two years, and his colleagues
all spoke glowingly of him. Everyone who met Zach made a friend for life.
His energy was infectious, and he lived life passionately. On any given day,
Zach could be found shopping at Costco or watching a movie from his vast
movie collection. He was a member of Christ Our King and Savior
Throughout his life, he loved his family fiercely and his memory is with them always.
