Zachary Taylor McKinnon returned to his heavenly home on Friday, February 14, 2025, passing away peacefully in the hospital at the age of 27.
Zach was born on January 9, 1998, in Mesa, Arizona, to his loving parents, Tim and Nicolle McKinnon. He was the oldest of six children and a devoted big brother to Kimball, Alistair, Senecca, Bella, and Kate.
Zach had a deep love for the outdoors—hunting and fishing were among his favorite pastimes. He had a gift for bringing joy to those around him and never failed to make others smile. His kind heart, adventurous spirit, and love of life left a lasting impact on everyone he met.
Zach was engaged to the love of his life, Kenzie, and the two were excited to build a future together.
He will be deeply missed by his family, fiancée, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Zachary is with Grandma now and his brother Alistair and my daughter Mollie. They can show him around and love him until we return home to unite. My husband Scott and I send love and prayers to Nicolle, Tim and her children wishing them peace during this most difficult time. Love to you all-
Aunt Michelle, Uncle Scott, Cousins Matthew, Katie and Ethan ❤️
I wish I had magic words that could help take away what you are all going through. Zachary was such a generous, kind & protective cousin to Connor. He always made me laugh & loved adventures. I know Grandma was waiting with open arms to love & be with him. He is sitting with Heavenly Father & Alistair until you are all together. My heart truly breaks for you all & have been praying for peace to come & comfort you. We love you all & loved Zachary very much. God bless… Aunt Shannon, Uncle Michael & cousin Connor. ❤️
We are so deeply sorry. Zack and Tyler, our son, were very close friends. Tyler is having a hard time but having the gospel in our lives sure does help. May peace be with all of your family at this difficult time. Love Dwane, Dorothy, Corrin, Tyler, Tayla and Scott.
