Zachary Jones

Age 29, of Upper St. Clair, PA, passed away unexpectedly on September 2, 2017, after losing a hard fought battle with addiction. He was passionate about life and he loved playing sports - throughout his childhood, he could often be found in the backyard building skate board ramps, shooting hoops, and playing pick-up basketball. Zack enjoyed life to the fullest. He was an exceptional piano player who loved to bang out a tune while people danced and sang around him. Zack loved helping his family and friends or anyone that needed him. Zachary worked in the construction and manufacturing business and he was great working with his hands. He preferred to be outside working or building or just enjoying nature. His natural charm and charisma were magnetic, and although Zack left an impression on all that got to know him, his family and friends were all that mattered to him up to the day he died, he was surrounded by a family who loved him and supported him and appreciated his kind-hearted nature. Son of Elizabeth Jones and Ronald Jones and stepson of Michael Carlow and Diana Jones; loving brother of Kathryn, Christopher, Madison, and Ryan Jones and the late Ronnie Jones; grandson of Donald and Carol Gilmore, Ronald and Marjorie Jones; stepbrother of Frank, Dorothy, Anthony, and Jackie Carlow; loving boyfriend to Kristin Parish; and nephew to many aunts and uncles. He will be greatly missed.
