Barb... We just learned about Karl's passing. He will be greatly missed by many. Please accept our sincere condolences. We are keeping you in our thoughts...

Dear Barb,
I am just finding out about this now, 3 onths later and I am devistaded, and so are the kids. (Chris & Shannon) You know how many times Dr Zimmerman helped me and I will forever be grateful. Never forgetting the time I called you at home when I was out of town in so much pain and he called in an antiobiotic that probably saved my live. Not only that but the times we needed to get in for whatever reason, like not going when we were supposed to and waiting for you to call us...

Dear Barbara,
We really didn't have that much time to get to know each other but Karl Was probably the best dentist i have ever had! I do not trust easily and am a big baby but he treated me with such grace and tenderness! I am so sorry for your loss and the loss to all of your other clients! I don't know if i will ever find any dentist that was as good as he was!!!!!

We loved Dr Zimmerman! He was my and my sister's dentist since our first tooth. Our entire family and many friends were patients of his wonderful practice. He and Barb were so warm and friendly and we will miss him greatly. Every time we smile we will think of Karl. Many condolences to Barb and her family.

Though I never had the opportunity to meet Karl, I appreciate all his passion for student dental research. As the most recent past president of the National Student Research Group, I am proud to say that the award competition Karl began in 1985 has continued every year since then and is only getting better. May his spirit live on and keep you and your loved ones strong!

Barbara, sorry to hear about Karl's passing. He was always one of the good guys. Genuine and caring even with his classmates. Even though I have not seen him for quite a few years, I hope he had a great life and fulfilling career. My prayers are with you.

It seems as if Dental School was just yesterday and we will all lamenting about gross anatomy and dental materials. Those were good days with Karl; he always made it easier. Barb, I'm so sorry about your loss. Georgia McDonald--Class of '86.

My thoughts are with you Barb. I was just thinking about your husband seeing my on Christmas day because a crown fell off. Wow.
