I know words can never truly soothe the pain the Zimmer family is currently enduring. Mary Jo was an amazing person who was always welcoming to her home, and you immediately felt like a member of the family the moment you walked into her abode, no matter where. To Everett – I am truly sorry for the loss of your lifelong love. It is so painful to see you having to endure this, but I believe Mary Jo is still with you. To Mark and Everett – nothing is as important in a young child’s life than their mother. I wish you peace, love, and strength as you honor her memory. She raised you to be great people in this world and the legacy she leaves is amazing.
I offer the entire Zimmer and extended family our deepest condolences.
Sincerely,
The Brinker Family
My family and myself offer the Zimmer family our deepest condolences. May mummy rest in perfect peace!
I can’t tell you how sorry we were to hear of Mary Jo’s passing. She was a great friend,and taught me a lot about Bridge. Everet, you were blessed to be married to such a lady, and Mark and your brother were very lucky to have her as your mother.
All the best to the three of you.
Iris and Alan Stansfield.
May her soul rest in peace.
