With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Raymond Robert Zimmerman, who peacefully entered into rest on October 28th, 2026 at the age of 98, surrounded by his cherished family.

Raymond was born in Loveland, Colorado on June 23rd, 1928, and married Bernice Zimmerman on April 22nd, 1960. They would have celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary together last year.

Raymond proudly served his country during the Korean War. Throughout his working years, he was employed by the Great Western Sugar Company, the R-2J School District at Winona Elementary, and later Hewlett-Packard (HP), where he worked until he and his wife retired. Above all, Raymond cherished his family and especially loved spending time with his grandchildren. He enjoyed attending many of their youth sporting events and cheering them on along the way. He was also a loyal fan of the Denver Broncos and Colorado Rockies, enjoying many games and seasons as a devoted supporter. In his free time, Raymond enjoyed playing solitaire, working on Sudoku puzzles, and completing crossword puzzles.

Raymond is survived by his children Gary Zimmerman, Mark Zimmerman (Ann), Karen Zimmerman, James Zimmerman (Julie), and Dan Zimmerman. His grandchildren are Dezirae Zimmerman, Josh Zimmerman, and Paige Zimmerman. He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather.

He is also survived by his extended family, countless friends, and many acquaintances whom he connected with throughout his memorable 98 years of life. His love and kindness will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

A service to honor his life will be held at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Loveland, Colorado on November 10, 2026, at 11:00 am. He will be deeply missed.
