My family had the privilege of living next door to Mr. Zimmerman (Mr. Z) for the past 10 years. He was a great neighbor and a very nice man. We consider ourselves lucky that we were able to be invited over to his house to hear stories of his amazing life, see the great art on the walls and see the photos and mementos of his experiences. I know the O'Connors before us also appreciated him and his wife as great neighbors. With the help of Scott, he took meticulous care and pride in his house and he will be sincerely missed.

I've known Mr. Zimmerman for more than 50 years and he was the kindest, sweetest man you would ever want to know. I took painting lessons from Mrs. Z and French lessons from Mr. Z. He was a sweetheart and will be missed.

Mr. Zimmerman, You were one of the finest men I have ever known. You asked me to come and see you and I never got the chance. Suddenly, my husband was transferred and I no longer lived in VT. You had a lot of goodness in you and you will be missed.
