Zackary Wayne Hauser, a beloved son, husband, father, brother, and friend, passed away on January 24, 2026, just two days shy of his 40th birthday. He was an exuberant spirit who truly embodied the essence of joy and companionship. Zack’s presence lit up any room he entered, and he was affectionately known as the life of the party, never meeting a stranger throughout his life.
Born on January 26, 1986, Zack grew up to become a dedicated individual who worked hard to support his family. He earned his GED and built a career that included a noteworthy six-year tenure at Lennar Homes, where he excelled in being a customer care rep. In addition to his professional commitments, he was proud to have volunteered for several years at the North Texas Fair, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to his community.
Music was one of Zack's greatest passions, and he found happiness in playing the guitar and attending concerts. He also enjoyed an array of hobbies including playing darts and watching and attending sporting events.Above all, he cherished spending quality time with his friends and family, especially his beloved son, Dallas, who was the pride and joy of his life.
Zack is survived by his devoted wife Tonya of five years, and his son, Dallas Hauser. He leaves behind four brothers, Michael Hauser and Nicholas Saville, Derek Torrey and Dakota Torrey. His loving sisters, Halley Hykel, Heather Saville, and Destini Osborne, will also hold cherished memories of him close to their hearts. Zack’s father, Richard Hauser (Janet), and mother, Debra Nafe Moseley, are mourning the loss of their son, as are many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who were touched by his warmth and kindness.
Zack is preceded in death by his grandparents, Bill and Pauline Hauser, and Don and Inez Nafe who surely welcomed him with open arms.
A funeral service to honor Zackary Wayne Hauser will be held at Bolivar Baptist Church in Sanger, Texas, on February 7, 2026, starting at 11:00 AM, followed by a graveside service at 12:00 PM. Family and friends are invited to join together in celebrating his remarkable life, sharing stories and memories as they come together in grief and remembrance.
