    Dear family and friends of James Zimmerman, we are so sorry to have read of your loss. Please accept our sincere condolences. As a health care worker Jim touched many lives and will be thought of often. In the difficult days to come may the many wonderful memories of Jim’s life give you comfort. Something we have personally found to be of great comfort are the thoughts expressed in the Bible at John 5:28 “all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out “. May God Jehovah comfort you during this difficult time.

    I knew Jim since he was a teenager. He always had his tongue permanently planted in his cheek and was ready for a wisecrack or two. He was a good friend to my brother, David Mezwinski. We will miss him.
