Post image for Jean Zimmerman – With the Lord at Age 93

Jean Zimmerman supported her husband, Al, as a minister’s wife and a missionary’s wife. She wrote Christian stories for African kids and worked alongside her husband whenever possible. Jean is survived by her sons, Stephen, John Mark and her daughter, Sara. She taught all of her children the piano and musical instruments.

Many Africans are praying for the family, having heard of the passing of their teacher and friend.

After Al’s death a few years ago, Jean elected to remain in Monroe (WA) where their last home was together. She was 93.
