MOHAWK: Don G. "Zimmie" Zimmerman, of Cleveland, TN., formerly of Mohawk, NY, went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Don was at home and had his loving family by his side.
He was born on November 19, 1944 in Binghamton, NY, the son of the late Mary Ludlow and Cecil (Carl) Zimmerman. Don attended Mohawk Central School, Class of 1962. On January 18, 1975 he was joined in marriage to Margaret V. Rose. After 31 years as a Union Steward at Chicago Pneumatic he retired. After his retirement, he opened Zimmie's Cycle in Mohawk, NY. He later relocated to Cleveland, TN to be closer to his children and grandchildren. He always looked forward to riding the motorcycle he has owned since 1981, and visiting Daytona Bike Week. His friends would say that he was a very wise man and mentor. Don will always be remembered as a well-respected and faithful Harley Davidson enthusiast who always quoted, "Ride it Like You Stole It."
Don is survived by his beloved wife, Marge; his children, Don and wife Anne of MN, Keith Paul of TN, Kimberly Zimmerman of AL and Kristen Zimmerman of TN. He also leaves 13 cherished grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
