Zachary J. Wilkoski

Zachary J. Wilkoski, 29, died on December 8, 2017 as a result of injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident on December 6, 2017.  He was born September 27, 1988 in Pittsburgh, PA the son of Joseph and Deborah (Connors) Wilkoski.  He attended Mt. Lebanon High School and graduated from Penn State University with a degree in Industrial Engineering, and later from the University of Pittsburgh with a Masters of Business Administration degree.

Zach is survived by his parents, a sister, Jennifer (Justin) Glass, and numerous loving aunts, uncles, and cousins.  Preceded in death by his grandparents June and John Connors, and Tillie and Joseph Wilkoski, Sr.

Zach worked for Kraft Heinz Corporation, and later for Bayer Corporation as a Planning Lead.  He was a bright, energetic, focused, hardworking individual who was quick to help others.  His smile, quick wit, and ability to brighten the day were well know.  Zach also was known for his keen planning and organization skills, both inside and outside of the workplace, where his gatherings with family and friends were well attended and enjoyed by all.

Zach was coming into his own when his life was cut short and before his full potential was realized.  He will be missed by family, friends, and colleagues.  A most giving and generous man, Zach was able to pass on the gift of life by donating his organs.  He was a selfless person who would do anything for anyone, and was loved by all.  Zach was taken from us too soon and will be greatly missed.
