Zachary Tyler Lewis, 30, of Martinsburg, WV, died Thursday, April 7, 2022, in Buckhannon, WV.
He was born July 14, 1991, in Clarksburg, WV, a son of Tim and Bev Smith Lewis who survive of Buckhannon. In addition to his parents, he is survived by his partner, Melissa English of Martinsburg; one daughter, Teagan Rose Lewis of Martinsburg; one son, Everett Mark Lewis of Martinsburg; one sister, Erica Baker and husband Nick of Wexford, PA; one brother, Nathan Lewis and girlfriend Stephanie Armentrout of Junior, WV; three nieces, Delaney Lewis of Weston, WV and Elise and Millie Baker of Wexford; one nephew, Oliver Baker of Wexford; maternal grandparents, Shirley and Gary Hershman and several aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Zach attended West Virginia University and worked in the oil and gas industry. He had just accepted a new position for the City of Martinsburg and recently closed on his new home. He was excited to be opening a new chapter of his life after years of hard work.
He grew up attending the Tallmansville Baptist Church. He loved to be outside fishing, hiking, and exploring. Zach could master a new hobby in days, sometimes hours, and was always learning something new. He loved to travel and had an amazing sense of adventure that he surely imparted on Teagan and Everett. Above all, Zach was a compassionate, loyal friend and a devoted, loving father. The ache left by his loss is only comforted by the blessing of knowing his warm & caring soul.
Friends will be received Saturday, April 16, 2022, from 10 AM to 2 PM at the Tallmansville Baptist Church in Tallmansville, WV. A funeral service will be held at 2 PM at the church with Rev. Tim Lewis and Pastor Greg Miller officiating. Burial will follow in the Lanham Cemetery in Queens, WV.
