Zachary John DeCremer, 18, of Niagara, passed away Tuesday, December 1, 2015, unexpectedly at his home.

He was born September 25, 1997, in Iron Mountain, son of Guy and Janet (Westrich) DeCremer.

Zac grew up in Niagara and was a senior at Niagara High School. He was lovingly embraced by the Norway community and school system for his freshman, sophomore and junior years of high school. He enjoyed playing soccer, football and running track. Zac was proud to be a member of the wrestling team that made it to the state tournaments three years in a row.

At the age of three, he started going to hunting camp with his dad where he loved camping, fishing and four-wheeling. He also enjoyed playing computer games, such as, “World of Warcraft”. Zac liked to play out door games and enjoyed spending time with family, making sure to have fun with his younger cousins. He loved going on vacations, reading books like “Harry Potter” and “Lord of the Rings” and wrestling with his sisters.

Zac truly enjoyed helping people. He could always be found taking time to care for those who were mistreated.
