The City of Glendale is saddened by the loss of a great leader, civic supporter and friend.

Mayor Zimmermann helped organize and served as president of the Glendale Historical Society.
 
On behalf of the Mayor, Board of Aldermen, and staff of the City of Glendale, we extend our deepest sympathies to the entire Zimmermann family. Our thoughts and prayers are with them in this difficult time.
