Listen to Obituary

Zachary James Pilchard was born on April 29, 2008 and arrived safe and sound in the arms of Jesus on June 30, 2025.

Although Zachy's life could have been defined by his many physical challenges, he was best known for his heart-melting smile, his tremendous strength and endurance, his fascination with Christmas lights and colorful-sound-making toys, and his genuine love for people. He was an active attender of Beth Eden Baptist Church - setting a record of thirteen straight years of participation in the Wednesday night Cubbies program. He was a proud Fletcher Miller Mustang (Class of 2026). He was supported medically by an incredible team of therapists, caregivers, nurses and doctors. His family is especially grateful for the extra-mile care and support from Dr. Scott Zimbelman from the Lakewood Kaiser office and the amazing team at Children's Hospital of Colorado, Zachy's home away from home.

The family chose Romans 8:28 as Zachy's life verse - And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

His funeral service will be held at Beth Eden Baptist Church in Wheat Ridge, CO on Saturday, July 19th at 10:30 AM. Everyone is invited to a lunch reception in the Efaw Fieldhouse following the service. Zachy will be buried at Crown Hill Cemetery, across the street from Beth Eden, at 2:00 PM.

Zachy is survived by his parents, Jason and Bethany Pilchard, his brother, Elijah Pilchard, his grandparents, Gregg Pilchard, Linda Bruner, Bob and Sharon Andrews, his aunts and uncles, Jenna Cottrell (Aaron), Brian Andrews, Jon Andrews and Jess Pilchard (Dave) and his cousins, Alex, Taylor, Brianna, Makenna, Keaton, Judah and Paisley. Along with the family dog, Arrabelle (Belley).

Zachy Pilchard - So strong. So sweet. So kind.
