Allan I are so deeply sorry for your loss.  Herb was a wonderful,  devoted  husband, father, and grandfather. If there was any indication of his deep love for his family and friends, it was certainly evident in your beautiful pictures. Our deepest condolences and pray for your family to find peace and comfort in each other.

My deepest condolences to the entire Zimmerman family. 
I had the privilege of getting to know Herb at Miami Air International. I enjoyed stopping  by his office to ask him how he was and what he was up to. He always, well almost always, gave that Herb smile ..he loved what he was doing and was so good at it, and so proud of his work with proven results. He then would ask me how things were in HR where I worked and then on to Honda’s because at one time we had the same model accord. He made me laugh so hard one day because he was then driving his wife’s Pilot as she had just gotten a new one. He said it was like driving an apartment down the Palmetto because it was so big.  I laughed and laughed with that description. This is one of my  memories I have of Herb and wanted to share it. I will always remember Herb fondly. 

You were the last couple we went out with right before the Covid pandemic closed everything down. Shiver’s BBQ in Homestead. Now whenever we eat there we will think of you. And the last time we saw you and spent time with you was on your 74th birthday in August. We are so glad that we had that one last opportunity to reconnect. We will always cherish the friendship that we had and the love that flowed amongst us—-all the way from college to our senior years.  Rest In Peace our forever friend!  Love, Marsha and Howie Lucas 

My sincere condolences to the Zimmerman family, I pray that your fondest and happiest memories of your husband, father, and grandfather helps heal your broken heart.  Herb was always a special person and such a joy to work with. He was a mentor to me regarding the commercial airline industry and has taught me so much. 

Rest in peace Herb, you will be missed.

I had the pleasure of working with Herb over the past 7 years.  Herb was one of the most dependable and extraordinary people I have ever done business with.  He was sincere, caring and always put 100% into everything he did.  My sincerest condolences.  Herb was one of the people that made this world a better place.  Rest in peace, Herb.  Jason

I’m thinking of this beautiful family on this heartbreaking day. Daryl, Lon & Stacy, & your loving families, you were each a very special part of a life so well lived, but taken way too soon. Memories are the legacy of love & Herb was so loved. These pictures are all so wonderful & show the joy in his life beside his beloved family. My thoughts, prayers and love are with you all today.

Herb was a great friend and we will miss him so much! My Dolphin buddy and mister fix it. A lifetime of terrific experiences for our families will be our fondest memories of Herb. Our deepest condolences to Daryl and family 
Love Howie and Marsha
