It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Zachary William Chrysler, affectionately known as “Beans,” at the age of 31. Zachary passed away at University Hospital in London, Ontario, with his loving family by his side. Zachary was a devoted son to his mother, Cathy Sproul, father David & stepmother Susan Chrysler, stepfather, David Rutledge. He was also a cherished brother among many siblings, all of whom will carry his memory forward with love – Nicole and Andrew Price, Hayden Chrysler, Morgan Chrysler, William Ferguson, Ben Rutledge, Garrett Chrysler, and Carter Chrysler. Loved by grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, and friends.
Zachary had a heart bigger than most; he was the kind of person who would always put others before himself without hesitation. His generosity, kindness, and willingness to help anyone in need defined who he was. He had a great sense of humor, was never afraid to be himself, and didn’t worry about what others thought. Being around him meant laughter, honesty, and genuine connection. He had a deep passion for working on vehicles and took great pride in his craftsmanship. One of his proudest accomplishments was fully restoring his 1981 Cutlass Supreme, a project that reflected his dedication, patience, and love for what he did. Zachary will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. His spirit, kindness, and laughter will never be forgotten.
“If love alone could have kept you here, you would have stayed forever. We will miss you more than you could ever know.”
A come and go celebration of life will be held at the Goderich Legion on the second floor Jubilee Hall on Friday, April 24th, from 3 PM – 7 PM.
