North CarolinaBe without fear in the face of thine enemies.
Be brave and upright that God may love thee.

    Zachary Hill passed away suddenly and unexpectedly the morning of January 15th, 2016. He leaves behind his sweet young bride of almost a year, Mackenzie Hadlow Hill.
    Zack is a gentile soul with big heart. He was an Artist, a Historian, a Teacher, a two tour Combat Veteran, and a prolific Writer. He was a true Warrior Poet that always sought peace. He loved to play games and spending time with his family and friends.
    Zack was also a Traveler. He adventured in other countries. He served his two year mission for his Church in Mexico and he taught English in Japan, and spent time in Italy. He served his Country in the darkest places in Iraq. Now he's gone to the Undiscovered Country. While he's away from us for the time being, we know we will see him again.
    We believe that he too is grieving for having to leave behind his friends, his family and his new bride. He would not have wanted to leave her now. But he was called back to his celestial home far too early. Our Father in Heaven has a plan for Zack, as he does for all of us. Things happen for a reason and it's our struggle to make sense of it in this mortal world... through our limited and narrow optics that are full of confusion, distraction, and pain. We take comfort that through the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we can be together forever.
    Instead of flowers, please go to Amazon.com and buy Zachary Hill's books and cherish his legacy. Through his writing, Zack will always be remembered.

    Even death cannot take the written word from us. Though we pass, it continues to live on. Leaving a piece of us.

    That is a beautiful obit, George. Zach, while taken too early, is an inspiration in how much he accomplished on this earth with what little time he was given.

    I wish I could have met the man in person. Again, my condolences to your family.

    To restore that which we have such long forgotten, we must look to books; and in reading them, restore to us the souls, spirits, and minds of the men who have gone on before us. In this we sojourn with them once again.

    Condolences to you and your family George.  I only met Zack once, at Basin but he left a lasting impression.  He seemed a great guy.

    I don't have it handy but someone should link the donation page if they haven't already (I didn't see it)  I'm on my phone and don't have it handy.

    Take care

    George, Thank you for posting that lovely tribute to your brother.  I never had the chance to meet him, by the love shown here he must have been an exceptional man.

    Zach lives on in Fiction... I just started to listen to the Audible version of HER BROTHER'S KEEPER by Mike Kupari, aka Nightcrawler here.  If you didn't pick up on it, Zach Hill is Zach Mesa in the book.   
    This brings me much comfort.

    Thanks, Mike, for that. 

    And thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.   Zach was also close to Steve Ting, Mike Kupari, Larry Correia... and so many others.   We are all grieving... This is hard for all of us.  Zach was IS just an AWESOME MAN. 
    He has a rich legacy through his writings.  He will never be forgotten.

    I want to add my condolences to the Hill family.  I read Larry Correia's post about Zach and was so impressed -- Zach is a truly great guy.

    Goddamn...

    It ain't politic, but I don't know how else to express it...

    I know what sudden loss is and how it hits like something beyond description...

    Best wishes and may Zach inspire for many years beyond his passing.

    I'm looking at a signed copy of Shattered Lands, I'm glad I can read his words and share in a little bit of him.  I remember meeting him at LTUE, and having a good time hanging out and chatting.

    We are diminished.

    To his family and friends may he live on in our hearts, and may the Lord comfort you.

    How fragile we are...
