C. Mary Zimmerman, 73, of Schnecksville, died on Oct. 17, 2019, in Lehigh Valley Hospital, Salisbury Township.

She was the wife of the late Dale E. Zimmerman.

Born April 23, 1946, in Ringtown, Schuylkill County, she was the daughter of the late Gordon J. and Eleanor Weikel.

She was a substitute coordinator for the Northwestern Lehigh School District for the last 15 years.

Before that, she worked for the former Sports Fever, Whitehall, Nuss Mobile Homes, Ballietsville, and PPL.

She dedicated her life to raising her three children, making many personal sacrifices along the way to ensure her children were provided for and raised to be positive and productive members of their community.

She loved her Northwestern Lehigh family and was blessed for the opportunity to watch her grandchildren grow up and play sports.

For the past 40 years, she could be seen cheering on her Tigers in a stadium, gymnasium or ball diamond.

She will be dearly missed by all whose path she crossed along her journey.

Her survivors include children Jason T. Zimmerman (Nicole) of Schnecksville, Jessica L. Llaneza (Pete) of Sparta, N.J., Joshua J. Zimmerman (Ashley) of New Tripoli; brothers Gordon L. and James E. Weikel, both of Ringtown; brother-in-law Don F. Zimmerman (Enes) of Reading; grandchildren Eli, Brady, Laudelino, Kendal and Brody; and nieces and nephews Paula, Anne, Gia, Chelsea, Chris, Jim, Sam and Annie.
