Please accept my condolences. I knew Greg as a customer at Weis Markets, where I work. He always said hi to me and we exchanged jokes. I am saddened to just find out he is no longer with us. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Zimmerman Family,

It has been a pleasure working with this guy. He was loving and a caring co-worker. I will never forget working with him at United Airlines. He always made me laugh. He said you will always be a rookie until you make it to my years of service with United Airlines. May he rest in peace.

Sincerly

To the Zimmerman Family,

I worked with Greg at ABE and we commuted to EWR for a short time before our schedules changed and had to drive seperately. Greg was always in good spirits and he always had a good word for everyone. Sorry for your loss.

To David and the Zimmerman Family,

I was saddened to here of Gregory's passing. I remember having the opportunity of working with David and Gregory, during their high school years, in the kitchen at the Muhlenberg Medical Center. I remember Gregory as a fun loving kid with a great sence of humor. And I am deeply proud that Gregory choose a career in the service of our country. He is a true patriot. May he rest in peace.
