Only in Woman’s Day
Zachary Bray had the world at his feet. Bright-eyed with big dreams, he was a much-loved son, stepson, wonderfully kind brother, loyal friend and steadfast teammate. For Zach’s dad Adam, there’s a moment every morning before he opens his eyes that he wishes the tragic events of the past months were nothing more than a terrible nightmare.
The father-of-four, 60, openly weeps as he recalls to Woman’s Day the moment he knew his beloved son was among the 10 wedding guests killed in the NSW Hunter Valley bus crash on June 11 earlier this year.
“It’s the call no parent ever wants to be on the receiving end of. My ex-wife Jacqui, Zachy’s mum, said she was watching TV and there’d been a bus crash in the Hunter Valley near where we both knew he’d been attending a wedding the day before,” recalls Adam, who was with his mother,
