Miss your smile Zane. Hope you're having a great time with my Mom, Dad and the other fine men of the USS New York BB-34!

I am so sorry to hear of Zane's passing. He was such a sweet man and I am honored to have met him through the USS New York reunions. We all had so much fun. I will always remember his big smile, laughter and big heart as I am sure that anyone that knew him will. I wish Maureen, Nanette and all of the family to find peace and comfort in this most difficult time.
Love to all,
Lizzie

My condolences to the Grimm family. So sorry to say goodbye to Zane. He was such a great guy. So fun and got so much enjoyment out of life, which he passed on to Nanette and Maureen, and everyone else he knew, I bet! I'm so proud to have known him, both as a crewmate of my Dad's on the USS New York, and as a friend.
Thanks for everything, Zane!
Sincerely, John Anderson
