Positive Vibes Only for Zaquary LePantz 

Zac was fun to his core. A well-known “ball of energy,” he was a staple to every good shenanigan, a couch buddy always in popular demand, a staunch advocate for celebrating mediocrity. A little superstitious at heart, Zac was always getting in on the action of Notre Dame and Chicago sports and he carried his gambling mantra “PVO” (positive vibes only) into all aspects of his life. He never sweat the small stuff and loved to “thank God tomorrow’s Sunday” on Sundays of three-day weekends, a reminder to relax and live in the moment. Zac made life better. He made us better. We will never forget the happiness he gifted us. He had such a positive and infectious outlook on life. We look for students who share in his optimism and want to share it with others. Never shied away from standing out from the crowd. Zac loved when his friends had fun. Loved seeing people at their best and helping them get there. Hated seeing a friend unhappy. If you were lucky enough to be among Zac’s friends, you know that he was loyal to a fault. He had your back like no other friend could. You were just way too important to him for Zac to see you suffer in any way. He loved anything that had a derivative based on fun, happiness or positivity.
