Michael J. Zimmer

Dean Zimmer, as I knew him 20 years ago, was a true gentleman, scholar, and great to the students at Seton Hall Law. Learned a lot from his employment class! He'll be missed.

I'm another who came to know Mike through the Fairchild clerks network, and then began to follow and admire his legal scholarship. My deepest condolences to Margaret and the family.

Please accept condolences from my family to yours in your time of grief.

Rest in Peace Professor Zimmer. I will treasure the wonderful experience that i had in Con Law. You were truly an unforgettable and unique professor that many will miss! You were one of a kind.

Mary and I were deeply saddened at the terrible news of Mike's passing. He was one of the kindest and gentlest people I have ever met.

Deepest condolences to Margaret, brother Ted, and the rest of...

RIP Professor Zimmer. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for your role in giving me a memorable law school experience.

Professor Zimmer's congenial presence at Loyola School of Law will be greatly missed. It was a pleasure working with him. May fond memories of him remain with us and keep his family strong. He was a wonderful caring human being who will be thought of often.

I was privileged to meet and become friends with Mike in law school, where his intelligence, wit, kindness and infallible B.S. detector soon became apparent to me. In our senior year, Mike was at least 50% responsible for setting me up on a blind date with the person who became, and is, my spouse. Although Mike's career path took him to places which meant we would get together less often, when we did visit Mike and Margaret, we felt welcomed as old friends who had been together only...

With sympathy, May the love of your family and friend carry you through your grief at this time.
